Well, after seeing deer all of October and November on my trail cam, they basically have disappeared and been replaced with 2 giant coyotes. Thinking about next deer season, I want these 2 big guys out of here. Heres the catch, I hunt an area in the greater Chicagoland area (yes, its legal) that consists of Bow only hunting. It is private land but there are houses that border two sides of the property, therefor a shotgun/rifle can't be used. I wouldn't mind leg trapping these SOB's but have to settle for a box trap then a .22 to the head or Carbon Monoxide poisoning via my tailpipe.

Since I only have a few options, I think Im going to try and box trap these guys in the next month. Does anyone have any plans for a box trap? I have a lot of 2x2s laying around so I thought Id put together something like I did when I was a kid for raccoons. some 2x2's and some chicken wire always worked for me with raccoons and possums. If nobody has any plans I wouldn't mind some help on dimensons you think I should go with as well. Also, I wouldn't mind some trigger set Ideas. I was thinking a line attached to a chicken leg that goes to a door via a couple eye loops but am up for any ideas.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I think if I can get rid of these two it would really help with deer numbers and keep more deer around my stand. Thanks everyone!
