We all know it happens, a deer accidently steps on a foot-hold trap. This time I was able to witness it on video. The good thing is the ordeal appears to scare the deer way more than actually inflict any pain.

I could set 20 traps tomorrow and first check would have 7-10 spring by deer. I swear they make a game of it. I can get by using urine IF I use bobcat. Sometimes I can get away with coyote, but Fox is definitely a NO. Bait only sets are the least messed with. Baited and lured and plain lured are the next least. Anything with urine is close to 60/40.

That was cool to see. I know they set them off but have never got to see it before.

I’ve actually had half a catch circle from a deer before. Wasn’t caught long but left a few marks struggling to get out. Think Swamp mentioned he’d caught one in a #5 set for beavers before. It could’ve been someone else, so don’t quote me.
I’m glad they pop out, don’t think I want to try and release one by myself.

I've watched 2 guys do it on the tube, was quite a rodeo!

Cool ! That one on the right ran several steps before it ever came back to the ground.
Looks like the jaw or lever kicked the foot up .... never really pinched it. (too fast to tell for sure tho)
Super reaction speed !
Thanks for that !

You win the prize, red fox urine is what I sprinkled on the clump of weeds in hopes of nabbing a coyote.

Here's a spike setting off a K9 Extreme Jr. He has no idea what happened.

I had the fun of letting a whitetail out this fall. It was a party!
