My first toe catch in two seasons of using the No Bs Extreme and it was by one toe. I thought I had him better or I wouldn't have taken the first pic. One of the reasons I like earth anchors and short chains.

I wish I knew exactly how that happened. It was an old blind set that I hadn't messed with in weeks so the little guiding I had must not have helped. If you look close you can see half the pad on that toe is outside the jaws. Hard to believe it worked at all. Must have had most of his foot on the lever.

Sometimes you are lucky, sometimes they are! I had a coyote miss 3 snares by 6", 1', 3', and ducked 2 others, unless there were two coyote

I know all about that. I get this lucky once every 4 or 5 years. The last time the coyote actually pulled out just as I was squeezing the trigger and off he went. I sent several rounds after it. Missing of course but it ran straight to the river and jumped in but I had a boat. That incident used up about 4 years of luck for me.
