They're priced with most DP brands so the cost is out the window.

I have Duke,Z's, Daggers and Alcatraz.

Was leaning toward the Dukes.


There is really no contest here.

All you need is more COON DAGGERS !!!! laugh

Best Dog Proof on the market, bar none.

And all AMERICAN MADE too !!! laugh

Coon Daggers are my favorite. They are some tough traps. Very strong springs as well and hold up over time. Push and pull trigger that can be locked open is what I really like. Stable pushing in the mud as well with a drain hole.

They hold some big old boars no problem. Never lost one.

I have caught hundreds of coons in them. They catch and hold coons great, even better than the modern DPs IMO, However they require a setter to set and remove the coons, and to maximize their ability, you need to weld on a small stabilizer and weld on small hinges to hold the doors. All that adds up to too much trouble for most trappers, but they can be had for cheap these days so if someone didn't mind the tinkering they would perfect for them.

I have a few Daggers. They are heavy duty. I like them alot better then some other brands.

BUT I have had pull outs with them. The coon must of been a bear. The set area was all tore up.

Still haven't made my mind up yet. Got a month or so before I have to order the traps.


WISH I HAD MORE TIME TO TRAP!

Maybe one day if I can find it I will have to post video of how a raccoon turned itself loose. yep! he sure did, had to watch it several times. it sure does explain some empty traps. The coon daggers are currently the only trap out there with a 2 way shaped trigger. as many may know the Infringment suit with Z-Traps was settled through mediation last August. THey agreed to settle for a license fee and no longer to sell ,import or manufacture a two way shaped trigger. we did allow them to sell out current stock of infringing traps with the pin REMOVED.
DUKE traps however has been Licensed to manufacture a load of my selective trigger traps. I am not sure when they will do that but I am sure they will sell out fast when they hit the market. apparently the market must be improving as I have had a rough time keeping up lately.

Great traps!

The chain and anchor attached sets them apart from others IMO

Nice traps but I do not like the anchor in hard or frozen dirt.

PCS featherlight cast aluminum traps are my new favorite. Easy to carry a bunch. Made in USA as well.
