Its top secret-you have to pay for it and sign a non disclosure contract.
And cant trap within 500 miles of his trapground after learning the secret..

Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.

Say what you want but he knows his trapping and predator control work, and he gives plenty of credit to those he learned from, plus his own insights
And he's like PT Barnum he doesn't give a darn what you say about him as long as you spell his name right.

Never met O’Gorman or read his stuff, but the OP might look into an alternative and check out James Lucero material.

Write him letters. He answers them.
Stories? Lessons? To beat the competition you only need to one thing if you are a good trapper. Work your _ss off harder than all the other guys. When you are tired don't stop. If you competition works sun-up to sun-down, then you trap two hours before sun up to two hours after sundown. If your competition has 100 sets out make sure you have 200 sets out that are just as good or better than his. All things being equal this is a good lesson.
I don't think Locklear will show up. If he does he will have his massage lotion and hot rocks.
Just passin through

He is one of the very few trappers that walked the talk. Definitely one of the best at marketing the walk

I have found over the years excellent advise and help from the members in the NCTA. Im a life member.
When we would put on a advanced trapper ed. class it was wall to wall hands on advice & help.
Check out your state trappers association for help.
