Has there ever been a time !

When we need possums more :

Instead of slick trees at least if there is a possum your getting minused for somthing.

Instead of getting accused of babbling you can ask them why their dogs won't open on a cold possum.

There's always a chance in a pinch you can get sombody to plus one when you need it most.

Never under estimate the power of a possum through he all things are possumble !

Hahahahahaha yep. But hey don't forget though if you tree a opossum there's a Coon higher up. I mean it happened at the world hunt, on several trees.

Side note. I'm going to have to use the cold opossum track in my next hunt.

The few possum Chuck caught in his fox or coyote traps sold quicker than coon we sent to the NAFA fur auction the last 2 yrs.

I can remember $7.00 a possum I skinned every one of them and for that I would do it again matter of fact I would be really dedicated to it lol!!
