5/5.
One set he did not snap the trap so it doesn’t count. I think I caught him about 50 feet away earlier.

the gopherhawk is on clearance at Menards. Its discontinued. I went to the gopherhawk website and there are none available direct from them. I wonder if they are closing up shop?
They dont offer shipping on it, so you can buy online and pick up in store. Lots of stores show inventory is available.

Was thinking what a genius product this was. Easy to make and ship. I would think the margins would be out of sight. Surprised they would just "quit". Edit: Reading what you said once again.......they likly do not sell direct to the public in order to support their dealer network. Nice to see actually. (tho I thought I saw large quantities on their website for sale.....just no singles) |

Baxter shows inventory if you need more. $28 after tax.
90% of places online are out of stock on them. Menards shows as discontinued. Who knows.
Looking forward to trying one. I have to go to Maple Grove to pick mine up tomorrow. Goddam gophers are eating the roots around my pine trees and they are falling over in our CRP.

Take a deep breath......I pretty much doubt the gophers are gonna kill your pine trees. Grin. |

No, they are.
They wont take out a few thousand trees, but I have pines laying on the ground with gopher mounds around them. The roots are cut off(gone) to the stump.
I have meant to post about it. its bizarre. Trees over 6 ft tall. Not seedlings.

I have meant to post about it. its bizarre. Trees over 6 ft tall. Not seedlings. That happened for us back in the 60’s. It hits patches . I have read that the wire catches on gopher hawks are prone to rust. I rinse my trap after use and let it dry. I probably should spray it with wd 40 before storing for long periods. |

The new ones are made of stainless steel wire. No rust. The old ones did have rust problems. No more. (so I have read) |
