love these pics I've trapped all these as well but I do it for pest control or just to see what I can get only have pics of groundhog and opossum and maybe a few squirrels but I release all but the squirrels

wormraiser - l like your profile pic. the coon is just looking at the camera like "what?"
have any of you tried snaring? I just started looking into it and it seems a little harder than live trapping but less expensive.

haven't tried snaring really rather live animal traps cause I catch and release unless it's a nuisance animal that I can't relocate. I think it might be hard to release the snare with out killing the animal first and i don't eat coon or opossum.

The pic came off my game cam by my deer feeder the white thing hanging down is the bump to drop corn and the coons never figured out how to do it lol

My dad's friend Spec went to Illinois and shot a really nice whitetail buck. It is a 15 point buck. Spec said he saw the buck out in the field and thought it was a cull deer and he shot it and it wasn't until he went out there to get it that he found out it was a lot nicer than he thought. Edited to add that this was not even the largest of the 5 bucks out there. Spec was using a bow and he couldn't get the right angle to shoot one of the other nicer bucks. Now I really want to know just how big the others were!

Anyways here is the photo. He could hardly put his hand around the base of the antlers.

Alabama deer are better than the ones here in Florida. We almost always go to Alabama for deer hunting.

The only bucks that I have seen were less than 8 points :/

I'm gonna trap for furs...I never really thought about what to do with the carcus after you skin them.
