looks like your setting way to low and your noose size is a bit on the small side try setting about four inches even four and a half high with noose of four inches
on the drawings i put up on squirrel snaring , i specifically said 4 1/2 inches high to the bottom of the noose with a 4 inch noose , why are you setting two fingers high with a small noose , as thats a thicker pole that your using so they are going to run higher ,make sure your loop is sitting centred on the pole also. another thing is your wire must be pliable and runs fast .

okk thanks alot, i'll put them higher, any other tips or tricks?

ive been attempting to snare for about a month and its getting sort of frusterationg lol

but i guess if i payed closer attention to snareman's instructions it may be less frusteration
