Groeney doesn't want carcass coon. Period. Takes up space and increases weight of the rat wagon costing more $$ to go X number of miles plus another step in the put up process.

Coach, get yourself another freezer or two and rig up a skinner so you can peel those coon quickly. Been there with the time squeeze myself for many years. Got to figure out a system to sell skinned coon.

At those prices you all would be doing the market a favor if you hung up your traps this season, rather than flood a already flooded market.

In any seasonal business …..when it's go time … you use your resources available to be as profitable and productive as possible. I can only imagine the energy and dollars its taking for GFW to step up there game. My guess is ….the last thing they have time for is carcass fur.

It is more cost effective,now, to buy graded lots of fur from the auction house than it is trying to put together a large enough lot of similar skins by trapping.
