Lee you have an outstanding reputation. No question on it.
Ive just never used one of these and happened to see them in action on a few episodes from Wiebe trapline adventures series. Very interesting tool.
I was just thinking about Wife's comment and depending on parole situation if one was not able to use a gun this would be a viable option.
Thats all.
Thanks Lee, and keep up the good work.

Money cannot buy you happiness, but it can buy you a trapping license and that's pretty close.

I have the option to use a gun for dispatch. After using the death ray this past season, the gun will stay in the truck. No bloody mess, no holes. Works wonderfully. Fast, and efficient.

I'd like to see a photo of this thing (from Lee, of course) just to get a glimpse of the phenomenon! PM is fine.

Best dispatch method I have run across. My 12 year old son can even use it. No more blood!

I find it invaluable. Just replaced the cable on mine tonight and looking forward to another season with it. Fast, quiet, clean, totally worth it.

Lee makes top quality stuff. I have a Ray, both long and short parallel knives, and a stainless wolffang driver. The short knife has quickly become my favorite. I think my Ray is 6 or 7 years old. It is a 4ft model that he no longer makes. Just hook them up, drag off to the side and by the time you have remade set, they are done. Great tool to have.

We use to just use a snare yo kill our coon. Had a snare with a cam lock. The other end of the snare had a handle so you could pull on the snare. Then you had a notched rod that would slide down the cable so as your pulling and pushing your closing the snare tighter and tighter. It killed coon with no problem. Never tried It on a coyote.But for the most part It works just like a Ray.

Bought one in Montana years ago when I met Lee. Quality tool that works great.
Best dispatch/release tool that I’ve used. You won’t egret buying one.
