The problem Is that the slot In your diver Is to tight. I So when your driving the fang It's getting deformed and spreading out. Then It hangs up In the driver. That was happing to me then I had my buddy laser cut the slots In the driver wider and the problem stopped. I used one driver last year and I must have driven a 100 fangs and never had one hang up.

I like them but used to hate pulling them. Got an FB puller didn't have the streng to pull them. Used a 7' piece of 1 1/8" pipe as a cheater bent the puller. Took it to the mad scientist shed cut off the handle at the braces. Cur the braces loose slid the 1 1/8" pipe on welded everything better than before, Welded a 1/4" piece of steel in the over sized slot at the end cut a 1/4" slot deeper than before re beveled and now I can pull them from way deep. The last ones I pulled were wearing little pointy straw hats and speaking Chinese. Just sayin.

they hold real well. The only way I get them out is in the spring with a shovel. You got to dig almost right up to them to pull them by hand. I agree though the driver could be better. This..^^^^^^ I started using Wolf Fangs last year and they hold really well. I to have to dig them up if I want them back. Most times I leave them and mark the spot and when I wanna set the area again I can get in and out fairly quickly...

Their drivers suck. I busted two the first day.
Got one from Tom Stalker and it finally broke after five years of absolute abuse and a LOT of smacks with a 4 lb hammer.
Great anchors. Crappy driver. Lee Steinmeyer made me a 36” Stainless one and that baby is super. I use it for punching holes, prying up stakes, and of course driving fangs. 4 lb hammer for me too if I’m on land. In the right mud, I just lean on my driver. Ahhhh....that’s the beaver trapping I like

My problem was with the driver and them folding when they hit something hard. I switched to super stakes and they work better for me.
Wish I had more time to trap....
