Snaring hogs is a blast and imo the most effective way to control them.

Still waiting on my DVD to come. Newt was out of town so he just sent it on Saturday. I can't wait to watch it. I'm heading up to camp on Friday so in hopes to get some hogs.

OK I watched the DVDs. And it seems I'm doing everything right just need to lower the set some. Also in the DVD he uses a smaller support wire wrapped around a small sapling then around the snare cable. I have been using #9 wire and a whammy on my snares. Not sure what set up I like better.

I prefer 9 wire with electric tape instead of whammy, lock at 3 o clock, holds better in my opinion, guarantee the loop is fully closed before coming off support wire, and if bumped will swing back into place

So you want the support wire to stay on as long as it can until its pulled off?
This may have been something else I was doing wrong. But it makes sense now that you mention it. All my snares ha e a whammy on them but I'm gonna try a few ways of supporting them to see what I like best.
I kinda like the tape idea!

If the snare comes off support wire to soon, the loop won't be closing until he hits end. That can be the difference between catching and not catching

Clint, if you had to buy production made snares for coyote and hogs, what would they be for each?

I don't buy snares for the reason nobody makes them like I want them
