Buckhunter Report post Posted August 11, 2009 Went looking for some bear in 23 but nothin. Turned on my Fox pro and 15 seconds later I get this guy jumping up on a boulder at 5 yards looking at me like , "what are you doing here?" thats when he met my 300 saum 150 gr, accubond. Lights out on a huge male Fox. Overall saw a few whitetail does and fawns. And a 3x3 muley. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
