Actually the success rate is extremely high.

I know of a guy that paid a thousand dollars or so a few years ago, down by Millston, Wi. He succeeded quickly and it was probably still cheaper than going out west.
Many farmers are so frustrated with them that i'm thinking I could find a place for ~free.

That is lower than what I expected. I've figured the expenses roughly to go out west and there's no way I could justify it. It would be a minimum of 5000 to do it and to me it's not worth it. I'll stock around here and hunt whitetail instead. I do give the landowner some different things and I also give them some deersticks and brats which they like. I also will shoot does to help keep the population in check. That's what they want and I'm happy to do it.

Took dog and cat to the vet Thursday. He gave the cat its vaccinations in each butt cheek. Dog got one in the butt cheek, other in front shoulder.
Both animals were sore as heck and terribly lethargic. Both are better today, but I have never had a pet act that way after vaccinations.
Never had that issue when they received the shot in the scruff of the neck.
Dog got rabies and DHLPP.
Cat got rabies and FVRCP.
I have been reading that these are actually every 3 year boosters, not 1 year. Thinking maybe their systems are getting overloaded with this medicine/booster.
Dog is 6, cat is 10. Thats a long time and a lot of medicine if its not needed.
Thoughts and opinions?

Under Canada's C-3 law I'm already considered a Canadian citizen, all I have to do is submit the paperwork and a $75 fee to get dual citizenship.

Can anyone think of benefits or possible pitfalls of doing this?

I wasn't trying to offend you or suggest you were a poor driver. Just that it won't cost much to try shifting at a slightly higher RPM.


No offense taken. Given the small number of vehicles produced nowadays with standards, it would not be surprising for someone to have driven only automatics and not know when to shift a standard. Keeping the rpms up out of the range where the skip happens doesn't fix the problem but only avoids the symptom and associated annoyance. Being under warranty I want it fixed.

Around here most of the landowners would take it as someone bothering them with the paperwork and over regulation. I've been fortunate to hunt the same land for over 40 years so I think the landowner knows me. I hope it stays that way for the awhile yet.

We had it here in MI for a few years, maybe late 80’s or early 90’s until the mid-90’s. I can’t recall exactly EXCEPT it was a huge POS!!! When I walked up to a property owners front door to ask permission to trap and explained the written permission slip, all kinds of red flags went up over the property owners heads when they’ed ask “you want me to sign what, what for??” The property owners did NOT want to waste their time reading the form and most HATED SIGNING it!! It was terrible IMHO!!

When I worked for MSU on the Dioxin Prj, MSU gave us permission forms made by the University for the property owners to sign, I wound up with 67 signatures I recall. Property owners were far more receptive to sign the MSU permission forms than they were previously by a lone trapper.

Terminator triggers or anything that is stainless...I know some guys that will take stick welder rods, bust the coating off and use those.

Some traps, like Belisles, just change the trigger as soon as you buy them.

I made a form several years where it lists the legalese stuff at the top then I just had a table below so I can have 20 landowners listed on one piece of paper. Course now, we can do just about everything electronically and it counts.

Side note for younger T man members: I would suggest for long term health just to carry one deer at a time over your back for a mile out to your rig. Makes it easier to get out of bed in your old age.

I’ve never carried out more than one deer at a time!! I did carry out a nice fork horn buck and two beaver one time. Only a little over 1/4 mile but I never want to do that again.

Probably in the same place as the "I never buy anything that isn't 20 years old and never have any problems" guys.

It won't work for kids, you'll still need fencing to contain kids if it's near residential or agriculture.
