2010 Predator Contest?
#40
lost several chickens to a fox last year, but then no sign for a long time. The other day I heard a lot of commotion outside and saw the fox running into the woods. I made chase but no dice (about 10am).
About 2pm that same day I heard it again and ran outside with my slug gun loaded with 3.5" Remington copper solids from deer season. I don't own a rifle yet, so it was all I had.
I saw the bastard with a hen it is mouth high-tailin it back into the trees. I shot once WAY to hastily and missed, then as she was about to crest a hill and disappear at 80 yards, I "smootched" at her and she stopped and turned..... BEHIND A TREE!
Now I am not here to brag about my marksmanship, in fact I am not that good!
AND all I could see of her was half of her face straight on.
I propped my slug gun on a hedge post and slowly squeezed while holding the cross-hairs between her eyes.
*CRACCKKK*........then she was gone..... figured I missed again like I always miss yotes and foxes!
Walked into the woods to make sure, and as I looked over the hill, there she was.
The bullet went INTO HER MOUTH!!!!!
Bet that copper solid didn't taste like chicken!!!!
Now I am shopping for a .243, we have a LOT of yotes out here!
You do NOT want to see the other side of her head!!
PS... the chicken is fine
