Be careful out there.....This almost got me this morning. I pulled up to a gravity feeder in my Rhino...turned the engine off, then turn the switch back on so the cooling fan would run...My Mistake.. I did not hear the rattlesnake right under the feeder...nor did I see him. I don't know if he struck, but when I did hear him, he was curling - backing up.. I guess 2-3 feet from my exposed leg. I was in shorts with rubber ankle top boots.. I jumped and now he is between me and the Rhino. I'm stuck..A ten minute stand off and he relaxed. I was able to easy to the Rhino and get the pistol....His mistake!!! I will buy me a 20 gauge tonight. The rosary bead I carry in my pocket is the only reason I can think of why I didn't get hit...!!!! I'll make sure I have them in my pocket all the time from now on!!!

where was this?

We are all blessed to have the big guy up above always looking out for us. Sometimes we do not understand when things happen but he does...Glad your safe Brother...:D

My grandpaw killed a six foot rattler in north louisiana last year while deer hunting.Ran over it with the four wheeler 15 times before it died.Sound like you got lucky on that one.

870
 

ohhh -- PS .. BASS PRO tonight..rem 870 wingmaster 20 gauge..$289.00 with rebate. I now have a gun for the DOVE hunt....(if that gets off the ground)...freak a pistol, I didn't hit him until the 3rd shot, and then I caught on half of his head...freaking rattle snake..his been in my head all day...I missed the first two, cuaght him in the head on the 3rd...hit just below the head on the 4th, missed the 5th and gut shot that big bastard on the 6th just for GP....shook up and didn't even think to take a picture with the camera phone... he was a fat bastard..

So I guess your saying a piece of water hose put under the covers at the foot of your bed tonight would not be too funny.....:grinpimp: :shaking:

well from his description, we know who to rob if he has a gun, odds are he wont hit us lol

no -- not funny!!!
 

:grinpimp::grinpimp:No Blue --- something would get HURT.....that would not be funny... I jump int he car tonight when I open the window and some cool air ran down my leg....wife laughed. I'll settle down tomorrow..:grinpimp:

:*****::*****: Glad your safe....

LMAO!!!!



glad your alright hang em! might want to spend some time before season starts at the gun range ;)

You see I'd have had to change clothes before any shooting would haave started.

i hunted on hwy 37 between greensburg and graingeville for years. i never saw one, but quite a few were killed right before and during bow season

Thats actually a cool pic...I would've crapped my pants...
