My neighbor had a few so I set one up on a deer trail and caught a coon. It's just a 3 foot piece of 1/8" steel cable wire put together like a lasso. placed a branch over it so the deer would step over and not get their hooves caught in it. smaller animals go under the branch. it catches the prey by the neck, as they try to walk through it. anyone else use these? seems like it did a little damage to the hide around the neck area. anyone ever catch a yote or fox on one?
