Nice Snake man

TB

Man y'all don't eat dat! Dats da devil!

Did you bump your head this morning?! That's fine eatin there!!!!:work:

Gave it to my uncle to mount for his house and lakehouse. He has prob close to 100 mounts if not more b/w the 2.

Where is that located?

Where I got snake? St. Francisville

Gotcha. Ive never run accross one before. My lease is near Forest Hill, but i'm sure them buggers are everywhere! Your gonna have to post a pic of the mount.

Where are you hunting at to come across it. During the search for caskets after Rita here in SWLA I came across MANY big cottonmouths all around Big Lake. DId you hear it first?

Killed one about that same size last year while hunting. Scared the crap out of me.

No it never rattled. I was coming put of one of my bow stand locations climbing up a ridge. Buddy was on back of bike holding a barrel. I had to go around a big brush pile and was going real slow. Buddy is very scared of snakes. It was coiled up under a branch about a 3 feet from his hand cause he was holding barrel off side of bike. He started screaming, "Go, Go!" I didnt even have to look to know what it was. Went to my truck and got my judge and got back before he slithered off.

F that!!! I would have just smashed his arse with the barrel!!!!!

wonder if snake jerky would be good...just a thought..

I have heard of people making it. They say its pretty good. May have to try it one day.

When I was a kid, me and a buddy killed 5 huge cottonmouths. All the men at the campground were drunk and told us to skin them and they would bbq them for us. Really was pretty good. :help: Never tried rattlesnake before.

That is why when I work the feeders and stands my Judge is on my hip. I aint going back to the truck to get it, they get hit with # 6 shot right then. ALWAYs keep the Judge with you in the woods.

Dont have a judge, but I do have a crack barrel .410 pistol that usually comes with me.

Definitely going to from now on.

About twenty one years ago I shot and killed a 5'11" timber rattler. This was at out deer lease outside of Arcadia. The snake was stretched out crossing a field road. I walked up on the rattler end with 22 pistol in hand, planted my foot just behind the rattler, leaned over and shot it in the head. That snake re-flexed upwards and back towards me and I nearly shat in my pants. The shot was dead center of the head. The timbers are a beautiful skinned snake.

When I went to load this one In the back of my truck I think it was still half alive or just nerves. Picked it up and it jumped/half struck at me. Like to crap my pants. My buddy took off running and screaming down the driveway of my camp. Beat the crap out of it's head with a piece of rebar.

LMAO i wish you could have gotten that on video!!!!
