I am making trapping decals. I don't know whether I'm allowed to post advertising or not so the mods may delete this post. I just do them now for a few friends but I need to finance my trapping. I am working out the details but want to see if anyone is interested. Thinking $5.00 for the plain and $7.50 for the text, plus postage. If this doesn't get deleted, I will post pictures of them on vehicles. I am looking for input maybe even "coyotes r us" ones if they want to buy some. Thanks  |

I'm sending out the first of them in the Am and will let you know the postage. I figure around $1.50. I will let you know. Thanks. And I may take it through PayPal.

I gotta be honest here, I dont think your decals are going to enhance trapping or trappers in the public eye. I think they are in poor taste.

I think they’re a great idea, but do you have any for grownups.

I respect everyone opinion. I like them and have a bunch of people wanting them. I take pride in the fact that I trap and I don't make excuses for it. I have buddies that don't and good for them. To me it's no different than the size matters decals with deer skulls on them. To me if someone sees it and asks about them, it gives me an opportunity to explain what trapping is all about. I didn't mean to offend anyone, I just thought that some of you would want to be able to show that you follow a honored tradition. Thanks for the time looking though.

I have no plans on buying them. He posted them on this forum, asked us what we thought, I am giving you answer. Thats what forums are about...everyone gets to opine!
yeah, yeah yeah...."coon hunters do it in the dark"...soccer players have more balls"...blah blah blah. give me a break...they're all lame.
I am all about the free market..anyone can make, buy or sell what they want. thats not the issue. The fact remains, he asked for feedback. Sorry, sometime life gives you feedback you don't like.
If you want to tout the heritage of trapping or show your pride in what you do, then make a decal or bumper sticker that presents trapping in a positive manner...not some over-used sexual innuendo.

Again, I don't want to create any disturbances but yesterday I was fillin up my truck and a guy asked about trappin. Most people are under the assumption that traps are leg breakers and still have teeth on them. The guy saw the decal and asked if I was a trapper, so I got the opp to let him know about what trapping was all about. How we as trappers can target specific animals and release non-target, how the traps today aren't going to break legs and such. As it turns out, I ended up gaining 120 acres of trapping land from that one guy, mainly because I explained that a trap is there all day whereas hunters can only be there for a few hours. He just happened to have a coyote problem. And I do have just some plain traps and I can custom make some. I respect everyones opinions and thanks to the positive remarks.

For those that may want some, I can make them in different colors. White is the best for windows but I can make them about any color. Thanks for looking

Perhaps some of the above posters didn't notice the "non offensive" version with no text on it. I see bumper stickers everyday, none really offend me regardless of my decision to agree or disagree with them. What size is the foothold with no text? I like it and would be happy to paypal you.

If everybody listened to everyone that had something negative to say, nobody would achieve anything. Can't make everyone happy all the time.
I know a lot of people that think pornography is offensive. My rifles are offensive, not to mention Hunting, drinking, swearing, and my very existence.
I might even think that peoples opinions are offensive. I'm just glad we have the right to do it all. ;D You just do what you think is right.

I don't care for the sexual inuendos! What would be wrong with a trap and AMERICAN TRAPPER or FREE TRAPPER or TRAPPING AN AMERICAN HERITAGE or I'M A COYOTE TRAPPER etc? Just my 2 cents.

Steve I can do whatever you want. If you want I can do "don't ever lick one of these", I just did these because they are out there for various different things. So you want 1/2 doz "free trapper" or maybe just the traps without any text. I figured SEX SELLS.
