I hit one of my "bucket List shots" a few weeks ago. I wished I was closer but the ridge was too tall and he would have been out of sight. It is a fitting series for 2/29/16, don't you think! Hope it's not four years till I get the next jumping fox! Thanks for looking! Cole

Fan-flipping-tastic, Cole!! Love that last shot. Everyone shoots the leap, but not everyone gets the hole shot :)

Love them all Cole! That's on my bucket list too! Was he pointing north? They're supposed to have greater accuracy if the align with magnetic north.

You know, now that I think about it, he was on a ridge that was running northeast, so maybe you are on to something!
