Bob, it used to be that hatters were known as Section III of which we had gd dmg and IV & dmg. For quite a few years now there no longer is a IV grade in beaver, so all of the worst of the worst are put into the gd dmg grade.

...this beaver graded gd dmg!

Must have not been a lot of bigger beavers on your lot. Looks like you averaged just under 1.3 lbs to the beaver.
