    Yea I love the fox...haven't tried the rabbit yet. I ordered some of the temple fox (racoon dog) and don't really care for it but live and learn.

    Did a lot of that experimenting back when I first got going as well, lol! I bet you would like it, but not sure how you may want to tie it as there are a few ways, but mainly for my two ways. One is using the Zonkers as the tail and Crosscut for the body. You can also if you don't mind a short tail, but long enough for the type tie. Don't know what you know about rabbit strips, but let me assume you don't know and say Crosscut is cut across the body so the hair comes off to one side and Zonkers are cut length wise so hair comes off inline with the hide. I like it both ways, but if I was to choose just one, it would be the Crosscut way and the hide doesn't show at all. With the tail Zonker the hide is showing, but really don't think that is a negative, I just like the way my little Roadrunners look with Crosscut strips.

    Anyway if you get any questions just PM of email me if you want.
