Nice bunch of fur.


Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.

That's a really great season!


Right now I’m having amnesia and déjà vu at the same time. I think I’ve forgotten this before.

Thanks all. I learned a ton and it was nice to finally have a season fall into place like this after 14 years of trial and error. That picture is the evolution of an 11 year old catching a handful of coon on the back 40 and I appreciate y’all taking time to enjoy the moment with me.

Great job on the commitment of time to catch and put up that many coon especially this year with the predicted low prices . But you story is more about how you made a commitment to achieving a goal Congrats on both But you will always have to satisfaction of achieving that goal as you move froward

Congrats on the pride in putting up your work!!! Finishing fur seems to becoming a lost art, especially at the prices they willing to give for coon and beavs. Is that a coyote your holding. besides the gray fox? If so, why didn't you finish it fur out...?

That is a coyote, it was my first and I forgot to turn it until too late because I was swamped with reckons that week. I’m getting a tan anyways, so it doesn’t make a difference to me. Good catch

I’m going to guess 150 of those raccoons came from DP’s. When I ran out of the dps I set some pocket sets and I caught a few in dirt holes. But the vast majority came out of dog proof traps.
