looks like there may be some value with the adults but the young of the year are not there yet from what I have seen.

my little brother shot one last week it was a pup and didnt look to good. i shot one yesterday, another pup that looked alright. it was still blue underneath though. the hit was a little off and the 22-250 ripped a good hole in him. its still pretty warm here though. im ready for that four letter word "snow".

Marginal at best. I have still been seeing quite a few that are short in the shoulders and flanks.

I've put up 6 so far this season. 4 adults and 2 pups. I definitely can't put up everything. I did the pups just to see what he would be worth. We have a new fur buyer coming through tis week on sunday. I have 11 coyotes and 1 bobcat left over from last year that I want to see if i can sell also.

He showed up. He bought the coyotes from the hunt at $6 on the carcass. He told me that put up coyotes would only bring $11 to $14. Bob cats with good bellies and backs will still be between $200 and $300 with the poorer quality probably bringing between $50 to $100. :(

:shock: OUCH!!!! Nobody knows what anything will bring until the december auction happens. It seems as all the fur buyers are going to be on the cautious side. Can't blame them for that!
