- Now before anyone asks, I will not show on video killing traps or snares. It is my believe for that skill set you would need to be in one of my survival classes, were I can supervise you period.
Always remember it is your duty, & responsibility to check your snares or traps at least once a day if not twice a day. You may need the food, but no animal that gets caught in one of your snares or traps needs to suffer any more than is necessary. Nature is here on this earth assist us in sustaining life, we are not to abuse its life because you’re not responsible or respectful enough of its life!
To be successful with traps or snares you must know first where the game lives and its habits in the area. Snares or Traps are no use to you if there isn’t game to get caught in them! Most of everything you need to know about my techniques for snares and traps you’ll find in the video. I will remind you of some safety issues especially spring-loaded type of snares or traps. Never, never put your body between the trigger and the snare or trap. If it should slip the actual trigger will fly back in your face and cut you or even take out your eye. While I was showing Doc on of my spring-up type snares I put my self between the trigger and the tree I was using to load-up activate the spring-up portion of the snare, and it slipped and cut my me just about my left eye. It just barely missed my eye. He had to make a butterfly bandage to close up the wound. If you don’t pay attention even for a moment you can get seriously hurt. Using the tree for my spring-up mechanism is my favorite way to make a snare, but because you have tension on the trigger system, which is set to go off with very little movement of your snare, the wind can accidentally trigger your snare. Remember an animal has its own idea of where and when it will go somewhere. To increase the likelihood of an animal getting caught in one of your snares or traps you must bate it, and canalize it to entice the animal to go into your snare or trap. There many different styles and techniques for making snares and traps. In the video are the one’s I use, because they work the best for me. Never limit your self in learning any skill set, try other techniques to expand your basket of knowledge!

You don’t often get 20 minutes of dense packed correct info on TH-cam. Thanks Randy.
I appreciate that!
RANDY!!! WOW! After seeing how much work goes in to these traps at class I can’t begin to imagine how long the prep for this video took! I bet you were cursing Karl the whole time!! THANK YOU!!!
You know at least once he said something to the effect of: "I can't believe the things I do for these yahoos!!" And, is it wrong if I really want to see Randy call someone a whippersnapper?
Its been 25 years since I learned this in school, great refresher now that I'm teaching my kids. Thanks Randy and TR
That is awesome!
People have no idea how important this video is, until they have zero WiFi,,,grasp it folks, Randy is the shit !!
6:16 “Animals are stupid”, the most non-politically correct but honest thing I’ve heard in a long time. Love your videos brother, keep’em coming!
this was excellent. the guy knows his stuff, and doesn't waste words. love it.
Mr. Randy Rawhide is a book of knowledge that I wish I could just read. This man is a national treasurer. Hope he lives a long time. Thank you for your service sir. I love learning about trapping even since I was a Boy Scout.
I hope so too!
I’ll be standing by for the 2 legged mammals episode🍀😆
This was OUTSTANDING! Definitely some new traps I haven't seen used! After the zombie apocalypse, I'm definitely going to find Karl, Randy, Chad, Imri, and the whole TR clan running there own little country! You guys all have some serious skills and knowledge! The fact that Randy wrote the survival manual for the Army definitely makes him an expert on building traps! Awesome video! Love learning bushcraft and survival skills from Randy! Thanks for the great video Karl!!🤜🤛🇺🇸🇺🇸
The bird snare is just awesome, thanks Randy. Another knowledge bomb from the TR Team.
Love your trapping techniques especially the bird one thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching
Great video. Love any info from Randy and the crew. Thanks!
More to come!
Tactical Rifleman oooooioo
Tactical Rifleman can’t wait!!
I've seen these traps in books before, but your explanation is so much clearer when a person can watch someone else teach it. Thanks, for the video, it was a big help. 👍👍👍
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you Mr. Wurst! Great content!
My favorite quote from this whole video. I hate you guys for this.
That's great. I know the feeling, all the work, and your just demonstrating. No actual meat for the freezer or stomach.
I imagine everything that is caught like this would have to be cooked to just short of burnt.
Alright Gents heading to Randy’s class. Eyes and ears everyone!! 😂. Great teacher. You and Josh Enyart best instructions and attitudes for shelter/survival.
As always TR leads all in diverse top notch teaching as well as jackassery.
I'm homeless living in the desert. This info let's me survive on only legal plants and animals with minimal impact. Thanks for sharing all your skills and experience. You have made a world of difference in my quality of living.
Thanks for continuing the group knowledge share. Randy is awesome! He's the kind of old uncle we could all use.
Our pleasure!
Awesome work Randall
Thank you! Cheers!
Love the Ojibwa bird snare! We used to make it with a little twig spring-pole to power the snare, but the weight works fine and is quicker to make. Caught many starlings and blackbirds on the rare Kentucky snow days...and many other days as far as that goes. The birds make great bait for predator trapping.
Thanks for naming the trap!
Thanks Mr. Randy and Tactical Rifleman crew!! Great video!!!
Top notch info
You Heros are truly Amazing!!!
God Bless America!
Wish u guys had a summer camp for kids! JR GB CAMP!
True American here🙏 thank you for what u do brother
I believe I have learned more from yall than I did in the army! Awesome video and great traps and snares sir! Thank you TR team for all you do!
He finally got into everything.
You catch people the same way. Manipulate the environment forcing them into a funnel, were you wait in ambush (or a device).
Thank you TR crew.
Our pleasure!
Coming by bait that will attract them would be good vid.... Love 1st bird one
This is my new favorite video! I always love the vast knowledge of randy thank you for sharing your knowledge with us randy.
Very cool. I learned it years ago as well and have a 9 yo boy who is wanting to learn it all. This video was a great refresher for me! Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Nice snares. Watched an episode of Alone last night and 2 rabbits that were snared on the ground were partially eaten by predators. Flexible tree method works well .
Randy thanks for this info. I have never used fishing leaders as snares, but man, that takes some out of the work out of it for sure. One thing I have used, that is the same principal for small game is guitar strings. About.18 to .24 gauge works good, and they are ready to go. Also, music stores sell them as individuals for those of us guitar players that break strings. It happens. Anyway, they are dirt cheap, and weigh nothing with a made on loop to use as a running bowline for your snare. Thanks for sharing your knowledge, and experience.
Thank you Randy for always sharing useful knowledge. I really appreciate all that you and the TR team provide.
Legitimately one of the best videos ever
Thanks team
Fiance and I've been watching "Alone" intermittently. The lack of bird hunting/trapping has been surprising me, but now I know why! Thank you for the knowledge bomb Randy, I appreciate your secret knowledge! Something I'm not getting... On the rabbit/squirrel trap, how exactly does the animal trigger the trap? I understand the trigger and tree-spring aspect, but I'm not following what part of the animal and why the snare is snagging on? Is the leader line not smooth? Am I just over thinking this one, and the animal steps into the loop on it's way through, and doesn't raise its paw high enough to not get caught in the contracting loop?
Randy is a wealth of knowledge. I can’t wait to take one of his survival classes and learn from “the great one” Amazing video Randy thank you very much for sharing just a few techniques with us
Thanks Randy great video hope I never need those techniques but knowledge is power and food in your belly great job guys keep the good content coming
Glad you enjoyed it
BRILLIANT and Ty so much for sharing knowledge ♥
Thank you for your time and efforts! Great info TR !
Glad you enjoyed it!
Randy, Thank you very much. Very informative and educational. Great class.
Thank you for your service and thank you for sharing your time and effort in trapping ..
Randall, your such a gooroo! I reckon its the Indian in ya. Boy, you da man! Good stuff, hard stuff to make. YOU make it look easy, that's why I call you a gooroo! Love ya brother, Keep walking with our KING!
For the live stream, I was hoping you would let randy rawhide just keep on rambling instead of trying to corral him into moving on.
I think it’s hilarious when he keeps on going on some weird tangent and I always love what he has to say even if I don’t find it particularly useful for me.
Another EXCELLENT video you guys! Thank you!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Really cool stuff.
Awesome technics! Great video gentlemen👍
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks for the video Randy!
Any time!
Excellent. Your hard work is greatly appreciated.
I appreciate that!
So nice of you
Very ausom. Great information you rock.
Thanks for watching!
Randall, thank you so much for this video, and taking the time to create, hands down, one of, if not theee best bird snare I've ever seen. Pain in the ass huh? I believe it, it looked like you put a ton of work into that. But if made right, that thing could last for such a long time. Challenge accepted, going to try my hand at making something like this.... Thanks again for passing your knowledge and wisdom...
Looking at it, I think you can fit several slots for the 'bird pipe' triggers, 90degs from each other, increase your odds. I mean... If you're making one in advance.... Great. Now I'm fine be in the garage all weekend. Maybe some nice purpleheart wood...
These survival videos are awesome, keep em coming. Would be cool if you guys did survival or bug out scenarios and sort of a walkthrough of both. Thanks TR
Can't wait to try these and then teach it to my scout troop
Good stuff!
I’ve seen that trap in all the good survival books for the past 30 years (although the bird seed bowl is a good idea I’ve never seen) and have never tried it because it looks like such a PITA and sketchy if it would work or not. Glad you made the video, thanks man.
Thanks, Randy
One more good video keep it up 👍👍
Thank you so much
Got me thinking, the scraps from yesterdays meal/rabbit , could be used to lure birds in .
The carving on the bird trap is impressive . I like the seed holder, but there is a better way to trigger the trap.
You know you've used too big a sapling when you come back and there just a leg and no body!!
This is my second favorite bird snare apart from the ground bottle.
Can use fish hooks for snares as well as loops.
I bet Randy would kick some serious ass in the show Alive. It wouldn't even be fair.
Loved it! Very useful. How about next how to make traps for a big 'game' - a proper Rambo - First Blood stuff ;-]
They'll be eatin' when you can't. Got a dove & squirrel feeder not 12' outside my front window that's hanging off a 3' 90 deg. 1/2'' conduit that's been screwed head high into a black walnut tree. The feeders kept filled with sunflower seeds & millet. Them little bastard squirrels were continually hammering it for the sunflower seeds, till I decided to drop the feeder by a galvanized 3/16'' wire cable about 3/4 the length of their body away from the tree trunk. As they stretch out to the feeder with their back leg claws hanging on the tree; I can not only tell what sex they are... but they can only access that side closest to them which allows for the doves perch in which to feed on the other 3 sectors. Feelings are mixed about the feeder from those in the neighborhood who have trouble with squirrels nailing their fruit trees. So @ the of the conduit I'll palm hammer home an apple on the end of it. Hell, for all I know I might be promoting the neighbors fruit desecration's.
It's a smorgasbord deluxe for 2 couples of Red Tail Hawks who'd several times swooped in from the street side of the feeder & forced a dove into my window pane & leaving an oily body and wings pattern on it. Other times they just land on the bird bath & bath themselves while a squirrel sassy's them not 4' away. It might be a good nature show for my junky ass... but it's also riot for someone side-walking their dog & the dog smacks into their instinctive treeing, instead of peeing mode. I know one things for sure about the squirrels and the doves. Both will become mighty good augmentations for beans & rice, if it should come to a continued stay of @ home survival.
Obligements for the trap & snare instructions Randy:

Thanks for sharing Brother.
A Bell on the snare is always good, if your in the area.
Alot of excellent info. Curious about your purchasing your knee pads. Would you recommend them for construction/ electrical?
Yes. We have them on our Amazon store at Tacticalrifleman.com
😎👍👍 trapping is fun!
Go look at the trending page... That is why we will survive and that is a good thing because when the time comes we can repopulate this world with critical thinkers not brain dead couch marshmallows
Ya I just looked and one was like "24 hr overnight challenge in soyboy's bedroom" LMFAO
Looks like something right out of SERE. Isn't Randy an instructor for that? If not, he should be.
On the last trap, what was the rational for the hole in the ground?
It gives the platform room to drop under the weight of the animal, which triggers the snare.
I was thinking about traping have some large rodent in the yard.. but what kind of snare is legal I'm checking.. like a Braden quick snare but alien Clapton it ....but got to find out what is known and not because if it's unknown it's not illegal technically
Can you cover traps and snares for people?
No
Awesome video Randy. If I was even half as bad ass as you I could probably keep my wife satisfied just by looking at her!
Hey guys I got a question I just dropped my gun off at a local Smith getting an optic cut on a 19. Do you recommend moving the rear sight in front of the red dot or leaving it behind? It's an extra 80$ should I get it done or leave it? Thanks in advance
Leave it
@@TacticalRifleman thanks man I have no experience with this and its my daily driver. I'm probably just over thinking this.
I swear , kojima based -code name: naked snake, on Randall .
😎
Make sure your saplings doesn’t out weight the animal you’re trying to catch or you’ll lose it 😮
"Animals are stupid"...Hahahaha!!!...
Your camera man is not close enough for me to see the trigger for the snare
I could not see how you made the trap
Sling shot video?
I'll add it to the list.
Animals will chew the string and get away..
now all the squirrels will go extinct cause everyone is gonna try these
It shows of how many people watched this and liked it that alot of americans have lost there way, are to fat and lazy, or just don't care... sad
That ain’t no trigger
FIVE upset vegans expressed their concerns by hammering their inert down button rather viciously so the observant ninja squirrels clan scout had reported back to the headquarters of their village brudder hoomins. Jutz sayin
Kinda like humans, lol
