You killed a fox from 50 feet away by throwing an aluminum baseball bat at it? Dude, that is awesome. I am impressed!

It was like 3 days after 25 chickens were surplus-killed and left to rot by the fox. I see him merrily cavoring across the SW near the stream, so I get between him and the woods. He runs along the stream and then gets confused by a 50' stand alone section of wire fencing that I had not moved yet. I doubled back to the house and grabbed the bat. My then 8 yr old son followed me at a distance, curious as to why I grabbed a bat and was running.

The fox kept maneuvering to try & get to the woods, but I kept getting in between. Eventually he did a sort of a "hook" end run around me and saw my son and stopped. The fox looked at him, my son looked at him, they both looked at me, everyone looked at everyone. Then the fox bolted for the woods, and I threw the bat at him just as he started to disappear into a brush mix of wild raspberries & weeds. I ran up and found the fox laying on top the aluminum bat.

That’s a great story, and excellent battlefield maneuvers on your part, BTW.
