I guess I have never checked %ages before but this year
XXXL=45%
XXL=20%
XL = 8%
L =13%
M=2%
dinks =~12%
These were coon.
I didn't catch enough of anything else to bother figuring.

 65% 2x or larger sound a little small to me. I better check to see what my % is for sure but I know my coons run larger than many water trappers on average because my snare set up is selective to larger coons and I rarely catch a dink in them. The more I use DP traps though I may see my % of 2x or larger go down. ~ADC~

The last batch of coon I sold were to a route buyer and I had a mutual friend grade and bag the coon to expedite the sale. Bags were marked with sizes and the buyer and I took our friend's grade. 103 coon so this is pretty close to a percentage. Slights and a few slates were down graded one size: 4X (38" or more)...............5 3X (32" to 38")................73 2X (29-32").....................25 XL (27-29").......................4 These were nice coon professionally handled but I believe very representative of what I normally sell, not cherry picked but junk culled of course. I haven't really got an explanation on the weird break on the 4X at 38." Another friend sells to this outfit and the 4X begins at 35." But I imagine it all comes out in the end.  |

Three different sizes here. Thane I assume those are Groenwald lengths there? Why do different buyers use different sizes? LLL |

OK here is how my breakdown went. This was the first 7 days out. I sold that weeks fur to a local buyer.
Hairsows--2.9%
4x-35" and up--27.9%
3x-32"-35"--29%
2X-29"-32"--26%
XL and smaller--14%
Some percentages were rounded to the tenth of a percent. LLL
