Merry Christmas Y’all. Thanks turkey neck man for being a good sport.
Merry Christmas to you my friend!
Merry Christmas Stu
Merry Christmas! Thank you for all of your trapping and fur handling videos! Just got all(?) my trapping gear, most from your recommendations-I live in western PA and this will be my first season trapping, and because of the knowledge you're sharing, I feel like I have a real shot at being successful (for a beginner anyways haha). Thanks again for all of your videos and explanations on the 'how and why' of all that goes into trapping, much appreciated. Happy Holidays!
I’ve trapped my first two beavers in three days and a muskrat inspired by your videos, this video made me laugh! Keep up the good work man you’re crazy throwing your fingers in those😂
Merry Christmas!
the dude throws his hand into the trap and says "oh boy." this guy is my favorite dude on youtube
it really doesnt hurt at all. they dont close with any force behind them.
@@joshlower1 what about body grippers? I'm not an anti I dabble in trapping myself.
The Second time with the delayed "ahg" was even better 😂
@@joshlower1 they do actually have some force behind them so that the animal cannot escape
@@joshlower1 He looks like is gonna cry. In fact there is a cut in the video.
I have never once seen or used these traps before. I have no clue why this is in my UA-cam feed. With that being said, I just have one question: how badly does closing that trap on your hand hurt?
Ever get your fingers stuck in a powered car window? About the same, depending on what size trap you use
Not as bad as slowly dying stuck in it
@@mikecrystalrobert7898 for science ur going to have to prove it.
@@mikecrystalrobert7898 prove it
@@charlesacree4830 I just got my hand stuck in a trap the other day on video
I'm a big time trapper here in South Alabama, and you couldn't have explained it any better. If anyone didn't understand what you were explaining and your excellent demonstrations, then they're completely clueless. Keep up the great work. GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY, AND MERRY CHRISTMAS 🎅
Great explanation. Just remember for the folks that can't understand this, all I can say is " You can't fix stupid." It's about as simple as it gets. Two levers closing two jaws.
I caught my first coyote today. Been a trapper for 3 days now. Your videos helped me a ton and made my first catch come very quickly! Can't thank you enough so I'll at just leave you a like. 🙏
Congrats on your first coyote!
What are you gonna do with it?
@@greeneyesfromohio4103 Practice skinning on it. Caught my first bobcat yesterday.
@@usernamehere6061 that’s pretty barbaric
@@skinnypete8928 Pretty sure that being attacked by a pack of wolves and having your neck bitten off or dying from blood loss in a natural way is more barbaric than getting your foot stuck for a night and then getting insta killed by a gun in the morning.
I have no idea how this got in my recommendations as i never watch any trapping or hunting videos. But it was fun and educational. Always fun to learn new things.Great video.
I like the random videos sometimes. Just like you said it is fun to learn new things 👍
When you gave the finger at the end, I could see that bruise on your middle finger. Maybe even drew some blood? What a legend. Taking those last 2 traps without gloves was crazy and very respectable.
thats just a bit of dirt off the trap is all the traps dont hurt at all.
@@joshlower1 when its freezing and you setting traps and int slams on your Fingers it will Hurt 😅
@@user-zh4fh6es6yyea cold don't help but it wheres off pretty fast and even when I sometimes release small predators instead of skinning them they usually don't even limp (they have but that's just if they've been in the trap over night and I see them on my trail cams not limping usually the same night)
So glad you demonstrated this I get so tired of people telling me offset traps don’t apply the same pressure as closed jaw traps. It really all boils down to common sense.
See the pelts drying brings back memories from my childhood. My father was a trapper for many years catching nutria, racoon, mink, otter and muskrat in South Louisiana. I will never forget seeing my dad skinning and scraping and cleaning the pelts then him and my mom stretching them on boards for hours then hanging them outside on a sort of clothes line he made. Never forget that unique smell.
Perfect explanation. If they don't get it now, they won't ever!
It’s hard to believe people don’t get this. But I did learn that if I’m trying to catch cardboard boxes, I need closed jaw traps 🤣😂🤣😂
It's kind of funny that in movies these kinds of traps always sever fingers when that would completely defeat the purpose of a trap.
A fellow named Gary Meis, a critical warrior from Minnesota for the pro-trapping side of things, made a similar video some 25 years ago for an outdoor program called Ron Schara's "Minnesota Bound" where he debunked the goofball lies of the anti's. It was part of a major network, airplay all over Mn. He stuck a gloved hand in a similar trap. We used that show's excerpt in MnDNR Hunter Education classes for years. Many adults didn't know the truth. Didn't know any better. And that opened a LOT of eyes to the truth. I don't trap, but am a life member of the MnTA because they needed help. They were the first to be attacked by the 'rat=child' crowd.
Loved it Man! Thanks for schooling people! There are people out there that have no idea what they are talking about and what you just did was a Stud and somewhat painful move to prove a point! If they can't see it from that view they probably need to be blocked, Merry Christmas and thank you for that great demonstration!
You made it pretty simple and easy to understand. Thank you!
I got my hand in a MB 550 last week. Being a woman, my hand was fine. Nothing broken or bruised but it was a pain in the ass to get off as my hand got too close to the lever. Needless to say it took me a few minutes but I was able to remove my hand. My husband wasn't to happy. I find the hold power of the offset to definitely be better than the closed. Now to get me that coyote that's been hanging around my coops. Merry Christmas sir.
There are millions of tree huggers who need to see your video! Great job.
I really appreciate the honesty you have in your videos.
Great video Stu 👍. Sometimes all you can do is smile and walk away. Some people will never get it.
I am 11 years old and live in Washington state and I can only use bulky cage traps but I enjoy watching your videos they have showed me how to tub animals, flesh them, and tann them, dry them. I also like how you showed that the traps don't hurt the animal just restrans it.
Another informative video. I appreciate your honesty and always being factual.
Keep up the great work.
Thanks for all your efforts.
Merry Christmas.
I thought you explained it perfectly in your first video. Lol !! Thanks for taking the time to make these videos and sharing them with the rest of us!! I started trapping almost 50 years ago when I was 9 . No one would tell you anything about how to trap .
Great demonstration, thanks for setting me right on this. Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas , you do a great job ! thank s for sharing
lol! your exactly right. Cant say I would stick my hand in a trap to prove a point for foolish people lol. happy trapping.
From one IL boy to another..don’t worry bout internet hero’s. They never lose in their mind. Keep cranking out these trapping vids! They are great and with nest predators and ground predators being out of control-we need folks trapping now more than ever! Good work!
“I can still give the finger to all you haters out there!!! “. Amen Brother. Great explanation. Thanks. PeaceY
Stu, you are doing great. You can't beat stupid into stupid, no matter how hard you try. You just keep doing your thing. No point in trying to convince people with no real-world experience or even basic understanding of physics and mechanical dynamics. It's not worth your time. Love the videos, keep them coming!
I definitely enjoyed your video. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. Question...do you ever laminate your jaws on your coyote traps? Besides offsetting I have found this to be the best modification for holding coyotes. Us old trappers are dying off, and I am glad to have you educated younger guys to carry on. Thanks
Dang, this man has all the correct information, and stuff of steel to back his point up. Nice job Sir, that deserves a subscribe from me.
Great demo. Classic Stu stuff, keep'm coming!
I chuckled through the whole video. I feel your pain trying to explain facts to those who refuse to believe them. I'm no expert by any means and it's been a learn as you go for me. Only teaching I've had is from online videos and I must say I like your channel the best. Keep the videos coming
Your video are helping me out alot and I'm 57 years old. And I'm learning alot from you and your videos. I'm learning this all so I can show my 13 year old grandson to trap. Because he wants to start traping and he wants me to do it with him. So keep up the good work you are doing on these videos. I'll be watching them forsure and thank you for your time too. Because to are showing this old dude shit that didnt know shit about traping.
I believed you with the first demo, always critics.. keep doing what you do !!
Great video Stu and your information is 100% spot on. As long as the animal's foot stops the jaws from making contact with each other, in other words closing completely, the pressure the jaws exert on the animal is exactly the same. The design of the offset jaws only ever had one reason for coming into being and that was to allow the lever or spring to rise higher on the jaw to maximize lockup. Anyone who has ever seen the large old Newhouse traps with massive teeth and offset jaws that are capable of holding anything that walks in North America will realize this. Anyone who doubts this needs to look at the Newhouse 114 that was made for wolves, the Newhouse 150 that was for smaller black bear and mountain lion and the Newhouse 15 that was for the largest black bear and grizzlies. All these traps were made generations ago and all have massive teeth and offset jaws. Animal comfort in no way inspired the design. It's all about holding power and allowing the springs to ride higher on the jaws when catching an animal with a thick foot. Thanks for educating people with accurate information.
Love it! Your videos are educational and extremely well put together! Happy trapping!
Very well demonstrated buddy! Merry Christmas and wishing you a Happy New Year!
It's definitely all about leverage! Great instructions brother!
Fantastic video/demonstration!!! Keep the videos coming! Have learned a lot from you! Thank you!! Merry Christmas!!
Scott from Maine
Merry Christmas Stu.
Man don't worry about these "I wanna see your manager Ken's" complaining.
These type people will argue with a stump. I got it and I just started trapping.
Mechanical leverage. The higher up the levers are on the jaws increases the force needed to pry the jaws outward and drive the levers down with the jaws. Itd still be pretty hard to test since traps are so perfectly designed to hold but you could take a trap and secure one jaw to a table and a scale to the other jaw and test the weight to pry the jaws open using a 1 inch board. Youd need something very large just to prove the point even though the numbers would be small and the difference between pulling open the closed jaws versus offset jaws would probably only be 10 pounds or so difference, its still a difference to prove the point. This is a very hard test to try to explain but i may be able to come up with my own video explaining a little more. I may give it a shot later on tonight.
Heck I learn something new everyday! Good Video Bud!
Couldn’t of explained it any better! Good video man
This was great. Well explained. Lots to be learned here. I thought like others that it was to help with blood flow but this makes it clear I was wrong. Well done indeed. 👍👍😎
Oh geez you should have used a polish Sausage and I will be a believer!! Only use a Polish Sausage!! 🤣🤣👍🏻👍🏻💯💯
Great job man. And classic move to make sure you could still use your fingers correctly. Keep up the great work and have a Merry Christmas.
I think Turkey neck guy was just looking for some added flair to the demonstration when he suggested Turkey necks or sausages in place of a wood block. He literally said that he wasn't disputing you, but thought that it would be cool to do the demonstration with Turkey necks
Best explanation I’ve heard for this! Good video Stu!
Hey brother love your content! I know there's no ice anywhere but you planning on any winter time fishing videos? I like watching you pull those slab crappie through the ice.
I’m still not convinced. I really think we need a tutorial with a Turkey head 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 sarcasm
Perfect ending... fingers work great, even that middle one. Great job. Keep up the good work.
I laughed out loud actually at that!
😂 I'm working nights and you just made my night so much better 😂😆
Bad ass man! My brother and I are trappers also and we have caught dozens of house cats in our traps with no damage to the animal. These traps were designed with the animals in mind. So that we as trappers can release an unintended catch.
I know nothing about traps, but I like hearing what you said.
Really great video Amigo !! Trapping haters are on the rise obviously,,, I really enjoyed your video.. I have done the same with those same traps to show land owners that traps don''t maim.. Sooo I know your pain and efforts.. Please don't get pissed and quit posting !! I have learned so much from you and your videos.. From trap placement to fur prep.. Keep'em coming in spite of the haters !!! I'll be watching.. You and 330 Maniac have taught me tons of stuff... I watch and learn .. Happy Holidays Amigo..
I don't know a thing about traps, I just came to see a man stick his hand in one. Wasn't disappointed.
You explained that awesome...the only thing I would add is that levers are higher on the wages that are made into the jaws, that allows like you said the mechanical advantage
Thank you for the awesome video, I can't believe how people couldn't get it the first video haha 😆
Stu, you explained the angle of the levers pretty damn well in that first video and it made good practical sense. But I think it's funny that Turkey Neck Man got under your skin. Cheers Stu! Happy & Healthy New Year.
Great explanation you really can't explain it any better. Thanks for making this video and showing this and that traps are merely handcuffs for critters. Merry Christmas to ya and good luck on the line
Beautiful!!!!! 😂😂😂 love the give the finger to the haters 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
ive always been all for hunting and stuff but never knew anything about traps, this was a really interesting video, thanks for thsharing the knowledge
Loved the attitude. Lol. Very informative videos. Keep them coming. Oh. Merry Christmas.
Never trapped except as a kid with a Have a heart box type. But have always enjoyed learning new stuff. Thanks for learning me LoL. Best demo I have ever seen on leg hold traps. It also answers the question about cruelty to the animals. Thanks 👍
Merry Christmas! Very good explanation on the traps. How about a video on what types of baits and lures you are using for coyotes.
Comments for the algorithms
Can't believe you stuck your hand in! That was great!
Merry Christmas to you Coon Creek. 🎄
Great demo... it convinced a land owner to let me use legholds now!!!
Great job explaining!!!
I love how u stick your hand in the traps
Offset traps are definitely harder on the animal's foot. Its a common confusion that your doing a good job demonstrating. Another great example is tim's mb 450 fox, lighter springs along with closed jaw makes for a perfect fox trap that is amazing when trapping greys, and ya dont have to keep replacing chewed up rubber jaws. Keep up the good work man.
You know what’s harder on the animals foot than an offset trap? The .22 round going through its forehead.
You know whats harder than a .22 round through the head....? Your wallet when you are trapping for the live market (because the market is paying >100% more than fur) and your critter has a .22 round through the head, or a mauled foot. ;-)
Merry Christmas 🎅. I can't wait for the mechanical advantage of the levers video
I appreciate your explanation and I enjoy your frustration
I really enjoyed this particular video ! Thanks for sharing
That middle finger to the haters was amazing 😂
Explained It perfect!! Nothing left to dispute or argue!!
Merry Christmas and if anyone writes a dumb comment after this then you know the old saying you can't fix stupid.
Merry Christmas hope you and yours have a great holiday and look forward to more videos.
I get the idea of your video and think they are both as effective as the next. The offset uses pure leverage at the end of the lockout and the traditional uses constant pressure. Use a coyote foot hook it up to a scale and see how many pounds of pressure it takes to break free of each trap. I think that would be a really good way to see the difference
Never saw the first video, but this was hella interesting and informative. Was happy it was recommended in my feed.
Best Christmas present ever! “As a matter of fact, I can still give a finger to all the haters”
Hahaha !!!!!! You had me at, "Putting my hand in Giant Trap". In the 70's my Little Brother Troy said that trap ( # 2 Victor Leaf Spring ) ain't gonna hurt me. He was 13 or 14. Well. He couldn't get his hand out. I had to get him out.
Awesome video. Great transparency! Sorry turkey neck man 🤣!
Merry Christmas Stu. I really thought you did a great job explaining the offset pressure in the first video. However good to see you were able to back up that video with an actual coyote foot and your hand. Unfortunately I have a feeling there are some bull heads out there this will not sink into, LOL Have a BLESSED day and keep SHARING your PASSION
Dayyyuuuuum GET EM STU!! Some people ain't the brightest crayons in the box and some are so stubborn u cant change minds. But one hell of a demonstration, also doesn't need to be said but your right for the record. Love the vids!! When do we get some on the trap line vids coming out?
Thanks stu for trying to set it straight it’s about leverage gosh I’ve had this argument before. I’m a fan of getting those levers up high!
I love it!! You rock!! To hell with the haters!!! Keep up the good work.
Can still give the finger to the haters out there. 🤣 Thanks for showing how to remove one handed (and all your other vids)! Will rewatch that later.
LOL. Really enjoyed this one. Thanks for great explanation and being a good sport. Merry Christmas. God Bless.
You got balls for sticking you hand in a trap. But, for any given thickness of material clamped with the 2 different traps, the offset jaw trap will have increased clamping force because of the greater leverage of the locking mechanism coming farther up the jaws. The closer a trap gets to fully closed the greater force it is applying. However you are correct that the increased holding ability of the trap is because the lock comes up higher, not because of increased clamping pressure. The higher the lock is on the jaws the harder it is to open the jaws without applying downward force on the locks, conversely the more open the jaws are the easier it is to open the jaws by simply pushing the jaws open.
Haha.....LOVE it Stu!!! Keep them coming and Merry Christmas!!!
Merry Christmas stu @coon creek outdoors tight lines my friend
You are 100% right. Offset traps give you better lockup on the levers of the trap. Hence more locking power same holding power but the levers are higher for more lockup vs the standard jaw traps.
Dude, you rock! F the haters!
Thank you for teaching me something I didn’t know. Wow your hand 🖐?! Amazing!!!
Merry Christmas... love your stuff...
lol dont waste your time on haters, your videos have helped me alot thanks for your time. merry christmas
Merry Christmas to all , Dang I don't know what to say , after laughing so hard while watching this vid It came to me ..... You Just Can Not Teach Stupid ( as in the haters ) I just hope they don't tork you off about conibear's . Love your vids , Have a great Christmas and a happy New Year .
Not going to lie, I was really waiting to see what dumb comments the haters had after this but it looks like you shut them all up real fast. Great video!
Huh, makes sense. I honestly got offsets because I feel like they would be easier on my dog if he got caught, also got the laminated jaws for the same reason.
"As a matter of fact I can give the finger to all the haters" hahaha!! Awesome, that earned a sub for sure.
🤣 If they don’t understand it, you will never teach them any different. I am not and never have been a trapper, but I have some understanding of mechanics!
However, your doubters do give you great food for continuing videos to try to convince them otherwise and MAYBE one day the fog will clear and allow the sun to shine through!
