Being pretty new at all of this, selling fur I am finding is tough to get an education on.
How would Illinois compare with PA... does it work like that?

BM...... look at your T&PC and you will find what "district" we are in.......if I recall right it is District 11. ( I don't sell to the auction hoeses) Then look at what PA is in. You will see the differnce as far as the big picture.
Those aren't bad prices considering. I am with sunny ...very surprised at the yote prices.......Not what any fur is really worth...but then it hasn't been in many many years.

Yeah, the yotes surprised me too based on what I had been hearing. Reds/grays/coon all seem to be down about 10-20% from last year.

Huck and BM, lookin at my T&PC now - most of Illinois is in #11 and these numbers would be from #2.
