I called and ordered from him.

The 2 pounders are probably gonna be an experiment with Duke dog proofs

I'd be a little afraid to use those little lightweight 2 prong drags on the left in the first picture. They'd probably work ok if there was a bunch of very heavy brush close by.

Yeah that one is gonna be a mink drag ?

Yeah I was thinking about ordering a few for coon. They are very reasonably priced so that's a plus.

You could attach a piece of scrap iron a foot or so up the chain to help. That’s probably what I’m gonna do

I have and use 4 dozen of the 4 pound J C Conner drags and one dozen of the Freedom brand drags. All are on 10 feet of no.5 chain with quick link on trap end of chain. Nothing goes very far especially on clear cuts.

Is it harder to release an animal on a drag? I’d think that with a longer chain…they’d have an easier time of getting a bite on ya ??

Yeah it's a pain if they have room to move a lot. It's not too bad if they're really tangled up.

Do y’all dye your drags, paint them or just leave them alone ?

I just leave them alone.

I just leave them alone.

Degreased mine got them sitting out to finish the job in case I missed anything

I dye mine when they start getting rusty. Would dip in some floor wax or fmj if I had any. The dye doesn’t seem to last too terribly long, but it feels like it gives it a little protection

I painted all of mine various shades of dirt brown from tan to sand to make them blend better from the prying eyes of the curious on hunting clubs.

 

[Throwback]

Well here’s a field test

Looks like that is definitely going to work. The only place that might not work would be plowed ground or really loose sand where it is softer. Great demo!!!!

I like it! Thanks for sharing. Mind telling how many you ordered and how much shipping was on them?
