I bought a new trap at co-op yesterday afternoon to help take care of a problem I have been having here around the house. I set my trap yesterday afternoon about an hour before dark and knew from past experiences in trapping this ferocious animal that I would need a trap that would kill quick to prevent them from breaking out of the trap and escaping. I checked the trap at dark yesterday and at first light this morning and it did not have anything in it and had not been tripped. I got home today and cracked open a cold beer and went to check the trap and had a nice one in the trap and it was stiffer than a board. I guess in all of its struggles that it killed itself trying to get out of the trap. I suspect there are more of them so I will stay after them and try to rid my place of all of them in the next few weeks. I took a few pics to share with you all and get your opinions on age and what it will score. I think it is a 6.5 year old that has gone down hill. It had a saggy belly, roman nose, and it's teeth were wore out. I don't know how it was even eating. I think I will skin it out and try to make the wife a new coat when I get enough of them saved up. laugh

Some men are mere hunters; others are turkey hunters. —Archibald Rutledge—
