One of my passions is primitive trapping,Being able to fashion snares/traps from nature is very satisfying.Over the years I have tried countless variations of primitive traps/snares.A few things I would recommend to anyone wanting to delve into survival primitive trapping,go ahead and experiment,study and build the many varieties out there.Once you have been through the vast number of them,build one of each and use them for future reference,I promise you that no picture can replace an acual working model.After you have completed your collection,choose three and no more than five of the best,successfu,simple to build,easy to gather materials traps/snares in your collection.Learn to build them without hesitation and thought.The fact of the matter is,many of the traps out there are to complicated or time consuming to be energy efficiant.Once you have chosen your go to sets,build as many components for them ahead of time as you can easily carry.I after many trials and error,chose three,ironically these three are nearly the same,but differ enough to be used for different types of animals,yet most components can be interchanged with one another.I love building sets,but when it gets down and dirty,my three go to set ups are already built,packed and ready to set in mere moments.
