I couldn't respond for awhile because I got a very nast computer virus and had to reformat. What a pain. Anyhow, here is what happened with the fox calling. I called for the fox at first light. The wind was in my face and there was standing corn behind me. There was a brushy semi-open field in front, separated from me by a fence row 20 yards in front of me. There were woods to the right and left. I called for about 25 minutes, using the pause button to stop the CD. I saw nothing so I stopped, sat still for a bit and then slowly stood up to check out behind me in the corn. I noticed the was a path of the standing corn that had been removed so I stepped back there to scope it out. I was standing there for about 2 minutes when I heard the corn moving ahead of me. Hear comes a red fox trotting down in a rown of standing corn. It ran right by me. I wound up shooting 3 times and missed with each one. I'm so mad at myself because I should never have shoot. It was too close and at a bad angle going away from me. Now it will never come to a call.

I then went night calling last night. I was in a perfect location and there had been fox sightings. I perched myself on a knoll that overlooked a overgrown marshty stream area. I was calling for about 5 minuts when I saw a set of eyes 80 yards out looking at me. It moved a bit but after 25 minuts, it never came closer. What a bummer. I will sit in tighter cover next time and see how this works. I am so frustrated right now with myself and calling. I feel like a complete idiot, but I'll do it all over again. LOL I'm still not clear on the wind thing. Do you call into the wind or with it? It seemsed as if that fox came behind me downwind. I would never have known.
