I am wondering how most guys dispatch a trapped coyote when you plan on keeping/selling fur.
I assume a .22 to either the head or maybe lungs? Either way leaves a hole, hopefully just one.
Reason I ask, is that I am retiring, and want to take up coyote trapping here in Illinois (for now).
I've dabbled in trapping for many years, but never too "serious".My job prevented me from spending the time required to run a line.
I'm not planning on getting rich for sure. Looking at it more as a hobby and a way to get some exercise and enjoy the outdoors.
Also, Minnesota Trapline Products seems like good people what little I've dealt with them in the past, so probably get some stuff from them.
Anyway, just wondering how you guys dispatch a coyote. Thanks for the advice.
