How to Build a Bow Trap

Watch the End!!!
This is a video showing how to build and set a basic bow trap. The process is demonstrated and ends with footage shot by the game-cam as a raccoon triggers the trap.

This is in South Texas and demonstrates a trap that should only be used in survival situations. Due to the dangerous nature of this trap, I would not advise anyone to construct one unless it is truly necessary.

This is not Humane. This trap is Dangerous. This was done for Educational purposes under controlled circumstances. Always use humane cage traps when possible.

The bow used is a Barnett Youth Buck Commander Lil Banshee Compound Bow Adjustable draw length (18" - 22").
Soft-touch grip
Ambidextrous riser
Smooth black finish
10"W x 34"L
Comes with an adjustable pin sight, finger rollers and 2 target arrows
