Can I set these in Ohio? I have 2 dozen waxed and dyed but was reading today they can’t have more than a 5 1/2 spread and these have 5 7/8 spread.

It says can have up to 6” jaw spread if they have a min of 3 swiveling points and a gripping surface of 5/16 or greater?


Can't kill em sittin at home.

You need to laminate the jaws and add a swivel. Adding one crunch proof swivel adds two additional swiveling points, which should put you at 3. This assuming you don’t have enough swivel points as they are, I think the only swivel point on the stock ones is at the base.

To be safe I would ask your game warden or Email the DNR in YOUR state.

Pretty sure he's asking about Ohio. It's spelled out in the regulations.
