When $3 is the top price for a raw hide, there is not much room for vairables. That $3 was for big prime coyotes. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif
Texas may have a lot of them, they just are not worth anything. Same with bobcats. Cat average for my area was $35. Northern and Western states were getting into the hundreds of dollars.
That means I need to get about 20 cats to get the top notch upper I want, and those guys only have to get 2. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif
