Duke 550 OS Pro

[@MarkJLarsonOutdoors]

Good video man! I bought a dozen Duke 550s and think they are a great trap 4 the money!

[@kytrapping5829]

Giving Duke some backing I think they rightly have Minnesota time to sell their 550’s and establish their customers. Now Duke has a little less sought and cheaper priced model of the same trap and like you said yourself they done the Dogproofs the same way so I don’t think it’s a big deal and it is patent pending so

[@BearlyOutdoors]

I would love to have some metallurgic testing done to see the difference in the trap and spring make-up.

[@huntready1435]

I definitely want to try out Kendall k9 juniors. I'm going to grab some at the Illinois Trappers Convention this fall

[@fjb5263]

Hunt Ready I got some today you won’t be disappointed

[@motrapper4273]

The K9 Xtreme Jrs are the best traps out there overall I think, can’t beat them for what u get for the $.

[@shelbyburgey884]

Good looking video but can't hear a thing but the chain rubbing against the bench. Sorry just a heads up on sound. Just noticed the date. I went to a more recent vid and sound was better.

[@CoffeyOutdoors]

great video im still gonna try the new trap

[@jonathankohl6264]

Do you know where I can get one and don't pay as much for shipping as I do the trap? Thanks

[@jojosiwa3585]

Yeah I'm wondering the same thing everywhere has pretty expensive shipping

[@heartlandtrapping3194]

Thanks for the review, much appreciated.

[@aarontoddadventures3817]

I would give the new dukes a try

[@DenverLoveless]

No volume. Having trouble to hear you with the volume up all the way. Other than that, good vid.

[@garysweatland5499]

Been wondering about the new Duke trap. Obviously a copy, like you said. Thanks for the video.

[@catwoman2596]

Volume??? I really need to hear this and I can't 😭

[@trevorbanks5563]

What spring is that in the mb550 you have? Thinking of adding some to my MBs just have never ran traps with those Springs. Good video tho!!

[@motrapper4273]

Trevor Banks thanks. It’s a JC Connor T Bar Shock Spring. www.fntpost.com/Products/Shock+Springs/J.C.+Conner's+T-Bar+Shock+Springs

[@Bearsfan871]

did you change your mind on buying any more duke 550? i've heard great things. Still hard to beat a #3 size trap

[@motrapper4273]

james Glendale I bought a dozen Duke 550s and I’m running them now to try and give a fair comparison to the MBs. They are holding up well. For the $ I would say they are hard to beat. Still controversial with the whole US vs China and copying etc, but they seem to be a good trap so far.

[@brauncox4605]

Where is each made? I don’t know. Just asking.

[@motrapper4273]

Duke is China, MB is Minnesota

[@jamesthornton9508]

Man !!! You need to speak up loud ! So people can hear you talk !!

[@georgehenry789]

Where did you buy it from and how much did you have to give ?

[@motrapper4273]

It was $17.95 for the one. I got it from Murray’s Lure. www.murrayslures.com/Default.asp

[@motrapper4273]

Southern Snares is selling them for $14.95 each now. Price dropped after the NTA. www.southernsnares.com/products/duke-550?variant=20686290583640

[@billeehighsmith7983]

Duke has a reputation in my neck of the woods for using cheap metal and I have PLENTY of experience with Duke traps warping at the levers and the jaws not closing and laying properly as a result. I'll NEVER buy another Duke trap to be honest. It's a cheap China knockoff made with subpar metal. It may work good for a season but give it a few seasons under it's belt and you'll see what I'm talking about. The old saying "cry once and smile a lot or smile once and cry a lot" applies here.

[@kevinhartshorn3132]

can not hear you.....

[@alj4940]

I think the no BS traps are not made in the states either if I'm not mistaken. I also think the MB 650 is a copy of another trap the name of it escapes me right now. At any rate thanks for taking the time. Al

[@motrapper4273]

Albert Jamison Jr. the No BS traps are made in Iowa, USA. The 650 is widely regarded as a copy of the MJ 600, but I don’t know either well enough to comment on that.

[@alj4940]

@@motrapper4273 Ah my mistake, very good to know,thanks for the info. Al

[@craigoutdoors30]

Does f&n sell these?

[@motrapper4273]

You mean F&T? They do not. I think Hoosier Trapper Outdoors has them if you’re looking to order online.

[@brad799]

Can't hear ya dude.

[@motrapper4273]

Sorry, I need to work on my set up to pick up the audio better!
