illumination. When a fox comes in their reflective eyes shine like silver dollars in that glow, plus their dark furry bod- ies stick out like a sore thumb if you’re hunting over the snow. Lower your calls or go to something like a mouse squeaker or bird chirp to lure them closer while still directing the glow at the animal with the main beam aimed up until they’re close enough to take a clear shot. The moment you’re ready to shoot, drop the light directly on the fox which usually will stop it in its tracks. They cannot see beyond the powerful beam in their eyes and will stand for several moments trying to make out what they can. That is when you take your shot. Two-man teams night calling
works best. One man runs the light and call while his amigo handles a rifle or handgun. I also believe two sets of eyes, especially at night, will not miss much where just one man handling both jobs can. Two men who learn to work together can do so without uttering a word. Each knows what the other will do and when he’ll do it. They become a deadly pair for even the smartest fox that ever walked, and this is especially true after Old Man Winter has laid his heavy hand over the land. Give night hunting a whirl and see what I mean. It’s a very different world after the sun

goes down, and one that can make the hair on your neck stand straight up. The three immensely successful
predatory animals in this story cover our nation from north to south and east to west. Each is an individual with its own likes and dislikes as far as coun- try, cover, and the advance of winter weather which points the way to what type of country holds any particular animal in greatest numbers. In all of these mixed lands, where you stand

your best chance to encounter them is predicated on your learning experienc- es. Every time we step out into predator country we should learn something new from that hunt. I know I always do. If you will, you’ll be a smarter, better prepared, and more successful hunter because of it and who has learned where you have your best chance to “make your stand count.”
Another area always well worth calling in is recent burns. These clear the land, allowing hunters to choose stands in burn areas adjacent to cover still standing. Varmints must come out into open areas to answer your calls. These areas make great setups because of it.
When hunting and calling in rimrock/ mesa country, choose elevation plus shade for a decided edge as I’m doing here, calling out onto sunlit areas. Set up like this, it’s virtually impossible to be seen by approaching animals.
In flat brush lands, choosing matching camo clothing and natural foliage blends the caller perfectly. Learn to keep the sun at your back or off either shoulder and any breeze in your face. You’ll score more if you do.
