I looked up the Gopherhawk trap. First off it is pricey! $32.99 plus shipping. Placement could be tricky, because you are never sure the trap is in the center of the run. For ADC work, I do not like anything sticking up out of the ground except the flag, to easy for someone to walk off with the trap. They would be great for those real deep run's. JMO

I do not think they would work very well on shallow runs, they would be top heavy. I see you have to dig them up IF a mole is caught.

I bought one after reading this thread- https://hunting-washington.com/smf/index.php/topic,233614.0/topicseen.html
Have not used it yet. The Victor scissor traps have been a mainstay for us. The OP said that he was selling his Victors at a garage sale after using the Gopherhawk. That's high enough praise for me to give them a shot.
