Gloves for protection

Hi im not new to trapping but im new to this business and i've been in a few situations where I could grab babys I just dont want get bit by mamma and be protected. Some have told me welding gloves but I find that hard to beleieve. Any advice would help thanks

Board Rules

I want gloves to keep the gators from biting my arms off

Just grab them by the tail and if they start up at you just give them a light shake ,

No billy doesn't have that kinda common sence that's why he is always getting bitten . I learned that from John Dixon hes considerd one of the best and considerd the best by most company's around here . He grabs adult coons by the tail every chance he gets . They can't get you if there hanging by there tail . Nice to see old school guys getting it done

No that's a turtleman move!

Pesky. Will you post a video of that?

I have used welding gloves to remove kitten coons. It dose great for them. I don't know about what mama would do to them though. I don't think she would be able to get through the leather but you would defiantly know you've been bit.

Animal handling gloves are great but their around $100 per pair. You can get welding gloves for around $20 per pair. I would use the gloves for the young ones and a catch pole or net for the adults, man.

Good part about grabbing the babies when you see them; remove the young ones and mama will leave. At least it's that way with coons and coyotes.

Sure I can post a video on the tail grab and stuff . The stuff part is getting them into the cage

You could double up a pair and make them twice as thick

Pesky I used your mOve today. I was chasing a coon down the middle of the road and tail grabbed him.
Worked great. I would have used my catch pole but it had another coon attached to it.

Awesome brother saves time to . Great you didn't let that money just run away

The real money was trying to leave with my catch pole. Good thing it slowed him down.
