Finally done with the catering contract I’ve been working on for the past 13 months. Been feeding 300 people lunch for 4 days a week for the past year lol. Finally got time to work on some fur and not have to do it a couple hours at a time in the middle of the night. Going to try to knock out another 150 in the next 3 weeks

I'm at a loss for words. That is a pile of bobcats. You are going to be busy.

Round 2 looks like you just rearranged the pile from round 1. Same cats - different position. LOL

He would be too if he'd ever trap one for himself Snowy. Those are all #boughtnotcaught

Maybe he can get one next year.

Yea, another post where Greg will respond and clarify all posts, except those from people saying something to insinuate he caught them. Typical.

But keep defending him like he's a stand up guy lol! People don't do that for long once they know the deal...ever.

I'm not sure what it matters. He has right in his signature that he's a buyer. He's not hiding anything.

Nice job Txcoon,Lots of work there!
What you paying on greys? I am sending stuff to NAFA but don't have time to stretch all I am catching. I am just west of San Angelo. They would all be trapped and shot with cb caps and skinned.

I’m the guy that tags em, anyone can apply to be a bobcat pelt propagander or whatever they call it, just register with the tpwd and they send you tags and you just to fill out all the paperwork for each cat, hunter or trappers name, adress, county cat was killed and date and sex, tons of paperwork and writing in tiny little boxes lol, they get tagged when they come off the boards
What’s left of 300 or so I got this year, will need to get some more most likely in March

Only like 20 in that pile, there’s 30 in the second pic. For some reason the freezers never seem to get any emptier though
