Savage Shooter; in answer to your post #17. I live about 3 miles southeast of Galesburg. I too use to sell to GFW. No more now. You take say 15 coon in to sell (say give away) they will give 31.00 for 1coon, 15.00 for 3 coons, 10.00 for 2coons, then 2.00 a piece for the rest . I do'nt do coons that way. I buy stright across fair and even. The more work the seller does the more I give. My sources are saying, starting prices this season MAY be 16.00 up to 28.00 for XL-3X, skinned, combed, no blood, no dirt, one hole. Do'nt know what else to say but happy hunting and may your truck be piled high with hides.
