it finally happened.

[philintheblank]

was out helping a guy set some leg traps who has lost about 60 chickens and ducks to fox and coyote so far this spring. as we were setting the 2nd trap i wasnt being as careful as i should have and the trap snapped my right across my fingers. didnt hurt as bad as i thought though, the thick gloves helped with that i bet.

im sure it wont be the last time either, i bet everyone remembers the first thime they got their hands stuck in a trap. haha

[moose maniac]

Not only do i remember it but i can still feel it

My wrist still makes clicking noises after a LDL 280mag incident my first year trapping.
