I figure that's about what my KY coon will bring... Hopefully! Doesn't really matter, I'm just piddling around and having a lot of fun doing it!

I am impressed to see many still practicing wildlife management through harvesting species that cost them to do so. There are a ton of hobbies and things we all do that cost us money instead of making any money. Several of us still choose to trap rats and coons knowing there is a limited to almost non-exsistant market. I am putting up several dozen WI mid November coons for a friend we will see what those coons bring. Most of what I am doing are the 4xl and over.

Hope you do well with your Kentucky coon 107. I guess size and local matters in this market. Don’t think anyone is gonna break the bank with them. Just hope you can cover expenses and have enough left for some barly pops. Distemper has already hit in my area on coon. Had to get across the river to find any numbers of them.

Don’t buy all the cat food at the dollar store WT, I ain’t gettin’ any younger myself.


I gotta get some pointers from ya Cliff on how to catch all boars lol.
I’m not skinning any coon. I’m not supplying the chinamen with fur for nothing.

I don't prefer to catch older males where I live. They are much harder to skin and flesh, have more ticks and many times their color is reddish to yellowish and they have just a rougher looking pelt on the hide side. Today I did 3 females all 4 and 5xl, white, few ticks and much easier to flesh. I have put up 39 coons for my friend and about 32 of those are 4 xl and more and the females are far better on average then the males.
