Best I could do....don't have a barn ;D Unloaded my fur today to a buyer in Milltown, IN. Feel like he treated me very fair considering what fur has been bringing. His name is Steve Cecil and is a good guy that is active in helping trappers out. While I was there a reporter from a local paper was there and was preparing to do some articles. Steve has also been assisting some folks that are doing a Trapping class at North Harrison Schools. He is going to have them contact me to look into doing one at Lanesville too.....see what I can do to help get that implemented in our school sytem. Need more buyers like him and Tim that are looking out for the future of Trapping.   |

Nice job, Mark. Just this once, you can call your garage a barn. ;D Your pic really shows off the range of colors in these IN coyotes. Not much in price, but they sure are pretty to look at. You put in a lot of hard work, and didnt give up when the going got tough. Thats what its about. PS- glad to see them skunks- That marks a true trapper.  |

Thanks guys. I sure felt a lot better this year when I left the buyer. Last year I handled my fur like I did when I was in school and the buyer said they looked great. Well the buyers last year said "take'em home and scrape'em". Needless to say I was embarrased around all of you guys that had well handled pelts. Anyway, thanks to everyone's good example, I got it done right this time and the buyer gave compliments instead of last years embarrasing comments that I didn't want to hear but needed to. About the skunks: easiest critter out of all of them to skin and flesh.....I was surprised and wished I would have had more. My best one brought $11.00!
