[QUOTE="puzzled in oregon, post: 1820568, member: 40255"] Would have been scary as heck and I can't imagine how bad it would have hurt. There is not much spring to get your feet on with those jump traps and with both thumbs in the trap it would have been really hard to put much weight on them. A #4 is a pretty good sized trap. #3 Long Spring was the biggest I could set after someone showed me how to break it over my knee. Was never comfortable setting the 330 Conibear, but could set the 280 Conibear. #2 Coil Spring was the largest of that type I was comfortable with. Maybe the #1 thing to instill in young trappers is "do not anchor the trap before setting". [/QUOTE]
