The 2 coil are probably plenty strong but I prefer the 4 coil in frozen ground. You can always get the 4 coil take two off until they get weak. You just have to get the spacers.

I know what a K9 Jr is but what is a "Coyote trap 4 coil"? Sorry just meant the KO k-9 extreme Coyote 4 coil trap. The coyote K9 extreme has a larger jaw opening vs the junior. I just didn't spell out the last trap fully.

If you’re using them in winter, frozen hard ground, you’ll come to greatly appreciate the smaller trap.
IMO the full size extreme is overkill for coyotes too.

I have both the full size and the jr k9 extremes. The biggest thing for me about the bigger trap is weight and trap bed size. The full size k9 extreme is a hunk of metal for sure. It takes a lot of digging and if you’re using wax dirt it will take twice as much as say a mb550. But the k9 extreme is a for sure coyote hammer!!! They have a big pan and big kill area! Really a high quality trap!! I think I caught 40 or so coyotes in them last year and several feral hogs up to 100 lbs.

4coil extreme. Bigger jaw spread and bigger pan means less misses.
4 coil really has nothing to do with holding power, it’s just to make the trap faster closing.
The no bs extreme is actually a slow closing trap even with 4 coils. But it’s got great lockup with 2 coils or 4.
Anyone that owns a gun and votes democrat deserves to have there gun taken, cause they truly are too stupid to own a gun.

I like my Jr's. They hold lions just fine (which is the NO BS's biggest fault because its easier to release a lion if it pulls out before you check). I've also caught Grey fox with them without a ton of damage.
If traps work like the Antis say......I would have no fingers.

I'd get the jr's with the wire levers if it were me. The full size trap is HUGE! What’s the benefit of the wire levers? Less area to freeze down? Lighter weight?
