I’ve only trapped one so far. Wily buggers.
I just got 5 more traps. I use an auger bit slightly smaller than the tube. I pull the dirt out as I go, then wallow the hole to fit. I also use the open end of the tool to pull up loose dirt in the tunnel. They do get more wary after a while and it can take longer the second or third time.
Poor Gopher. Just coming back from a hard days worth of work for a cold beer just to get caught up 😂
Another gopher hunter says you're supposed to leave the dead gopher inside the hole to repel other gophers

I’ve done it, it doesn’t seem to work
Oops! Thanks for sharing your experience. Good luck with your next catch!
Cool
I have pocket gophers and have caught 8+ with the Gopherhawk but its very difficult for me to find their tunnels. I've only had luck finding a dirt mound and placing a trap closeby. Probing around, you don't feel the obvious break in resistance like you would with a larger tunnel.

@iamtroyhollinger It was disturbing and triggering for some people. You could have cut off the camera and then came back on.

He hit it once and it died. Not sure how a shovel would be any different. You could say it was “risky”, but it did the same thing a shovel would do.

gopherhawk stinks for moles. It's not the right size for the holes so you have to do all this extra work to get the trap to sit up right. this is crap for moles. get a wiretek 1001
Just leave nature alone
