Can anyone share there experiences with the Death Ray catch pole? How durable are they and do they dispatch fur quickly and humanely? Don't want to spend $100 plus to find it doesn't work as touted. Thanks for your input

Lee even has a video where he teaches you how to rebuild the internals when you wear it out.

he posted it here a while back

From what I understand from folks is there is a prerequisite to using it.

Have one that Lee made and sold me, going on 5-6 year's I bet.
Lee recabled it last year, and got some new back up cable's this year.
Really like mine.

Have not seen KO version of one yet.


Let me sugar coat this

I hope Kendall doesn't change ANYTHING about Lee's Death Ray.
Mine is/has been a GREAT tool.

My dr is a constant on the coon line. No more blood when skinning. Revolutionary. It works well. The couple parts that wear are the cable and the lock. Both easy to replace.

Think he's trying to catch up on orders from the NTA before putting them on the site.

Have wanted one for some time after seeing one in action ... Clean dispatch. Just bought one for myself from No BS Lures at the WTA Convention. Picked up a few extra cables also. Nice as the DR, Lee was making in the past.

Other than my skinning machine (and not counting traps), the best money I have ever spent on anything trapping related.
