Well I was using wolf fangs before they were wolf fangs. The problem with todays wolf fangs Is they a bit wimpy. I make mine out of 1/8" steel if you can pull them you can re use them forever. Just file down the roughed up part in the throat and your good to go.

I've yet to pull a pogo without bending it ! 1 out of 10 wolf fangs ill bend as well! On my pogos I attach a retrieval cable so they can be used repeatedly. I only used pogos on cr, I go a bit deeper on crs versus traps! I liked dustin drews system on cables except for the pogos. I will try them again when I get a pile of finned super stakes

I havent used any but I want to start. I have a box or so of 2 inch fender washers. I live in Arkansas some ground is hard other l farm ground . Will it work in both. I want to use with my snares. And some coyote sets. I always used double stakes. Where can I get a heavy duty driver? Do I use a heavy duty j hook and about 15 to 18 inch 3/32 cable? F&T should have the drivers, and 2" on 3/32" cable, 15" to 18" in anything but sand, will hold an elephant lol

I have not used the Pogos but I bought 5 dozen wolf fangs this year to try after using rebar. So far I like them and they are heavy duty. I use the 1/8" cable WF from either FNT or Southern Snares. One of the few things I don't get from MTP because MTP doesn't carry 1/8" ones.

I use the 1.5 in only for land sets for canines and ive never had an issue I trap farm country only as that's all we have around me. I use 18in rebar for my dps with a washer welded to the top. Do u use 3/32 15 or 18 inch cable?

Definitely check washers to the driver, not all washers are same thickness. I had 10 out bag of 100 that didnt fit were too thick for the slot on driver.
Money cannot buy you happiness, but it can buy you a trapping license and that's pretty close.
