Son, My Girls and a couple of Foxes

Post by fox-admin »

The snow cover melted and took advantage of my son being home for an afternoon preserve hunt. Dogs are DeeDee and Tess my two AKC Master Hunters. I was shooting a CE12ga and my son was using a A 12ga.

Looks like a great way to spend an afternoon with good friends and family.

Good to see you are passing the Fox gene to your son. I wonder if he has any Idea of the disease you've thrust upon him and the life of being broke by searching for and purchasing that one last must have Fox?

Just kidding! Craig your a lucky man!

Craig, I agree - looks like a great time, one to be cherished as sons and daughters grow up all too quickly. One of these days I hope to meet your son and the girls. Frank

Foxist: The A is the gun I shot at the Bo-Whoop last Spring. I call it "the money pit" It had about original 99% CC (doesn't show well in the above picture due to the flash) I bought it as a shooter since someone hit the stock with a sanding pad when installing the pad. I shot it at clays for about a year. I was cleaning the gun and noticed the bottom rib was loose, $700 later and it is all fixed up. I will never recover my "investment" but it sees lots of service shooting game and targets.
