MY 2016-17 FUR BUYING ROUTE

MY 2016-17 FUR BUYING ROUTE - 11/28/16 03:20 AM

I understand my route is focused on the western part of the state but that doesn’t mean I’m not up for making a run to the east side of Texas as well. If I have enough trapper and hunter interest to compose a route I will coordinate with those that contact me and plan a trip the best suits everyone.

Please contact me if you are planning on being at any of the locations so that I don’t overlook anyone. You may also contact me anytime if you have any fur handling questions at all and I’m always glad to help with any info that you need. I’ll be in a grey tundra with a u haul. I look forward to seeing everyone again this year and good luck to all.

No there been some changes this year with the routes of how I drop off my finished fur to my agents so I had to change it up and stay further a little further west. I'll be buying skulls as well this year and the prices are about the same as last year

Coon 1-3
Fox 2-6
Coyote 5-15
Cat 10-40
Ringtail 10-20 frozen whole
Possum and skunk under 1
Beaver 2-8
Otter 5-15
Badger 5-15

Any chance you would be interested in a Wyoming bobcat if we get one to bring down? They are beautiful, my early semi-heavy 2 years ago brought $375, not bad for an early cat. Not sure on the market this year.

I would expect about half of that this year for that cat. The western heavies averaged around 200 last year. So we will see, I'm up for lookin at it but in all honesty I'm probably not the best outlet for those types of cats

Okay sounds good. On the skulls do you want us to take the fur out and boiled to get all the brains and everything out?

On the skulls simply skin the head and cut it off and freeze it. I need em raw
