Guys be carefull with the wire fence traps. I have seen to many pics of dead bucks that got tangled in the fence because the antlers werent ready.

Try using hay bails either set them up parallel or in a V and put the bait in the corner. Much less of a chance of hanging up a buck in it.


That is why I am going with Bungee cords...

When Buck Are Shedding, Their Antlers Possibly Can Get Caught In The Fence While Feeding. Then Drop Em.

Chicken Wire "Corner Fence"
Make Your Own Judgement On How High To Make It. Maybe 5Ft?

Does anyone know if shed traps are not permitted by law in any states?

I have used a couple of different kinds so far, unfortunately without any success. But here are some pictures:
