Source for that? I know there was a muppet whopping cows in the head with a sledgie that got on the news a few years ago, but I dare say estwing has been the tool of choice for possum trappers since...well, possum traps.
Anything will die "humanely" if you destroy the brain stem, whether with a .50bmg, or a ballpoint pen. (I don't recommend either for trapped possums btw)

Either trap them and take them too animals control spca etc for them too deal with,

The spca, at least in town here, has a policy of not killing them, but "rehoming" them. So I do not consider that a solution at all.
