Took one to the middle toe. It hurts. Alot. At hospital now. They gave me an IV ( probly bc i was drunk) no anti venom for now. Lots of swelling and pain but not life or foot threatening. Word of advise.. Dont wear flip flops in woods.

Yikes!!!

Had a friend kill a 3'er in his yard tonight. I guess they were moving good. It doesn't look like you took much venom.

What did it feel like

Best of luck recovering.

Yikes! Hope you recover fast! Keep us posted. We also have to look out for them mean boogers

It felt like someone hit my toe with a nail through it. Afterwards (and now). It feels about like a wasp sting x 20.

I stepped out of my buddies Rhino and WACK. I knew what happened b4 i looked down... My buddy tured it into a good snake, but damage was done.. If any of you fools ever thinks about not killing one of these... This could be your foot.. Or a kids.

Wow, hope you're better soon. This past dove season, I was hunting and decided to move to another spot. I got out of my truck and walked to the bed to get my stuff out not knowing I had parked right beside a 4' diamondback that I didn't see. When I got to the rear of the truck and turned to let the tailgate down, WHAM.... no warning and no rattle..... he hit me about mid way up on the back of my calf. Ever so thankful that I had put my leggings on about 20 minutes before I decided to move to this location.

To this day, I am amazed at the force that he hit with. Not hearing him rattle, my first thought was that someone had hit me in the back of the leg with a baseball bat, it was that hard of a stike. Immediately afterwards, the snake died a horrible death, dove hunting was over for the day and that pair of Fruit of the Looms was no longer salvageable.....

Ouch!!! Looks like they drew a County Road Map. Hope your okay, I fear that.

I hope for a speedy recovery for you sir, Thank's for sharing maybe it will make the rest of us more aware of our surrounding's

Mother in law got bit on the foot a few years ago. Unfortunately she was fine LOL. Just kidding. Good luck buddy hope it gets better soon. I would of died from panic!!!!!

Good news this morn. Doc said I can go home after breakfast. Still hurts and is swollen, but the second they pull this IV out of my arm will be awesome. I hate these things

Ouch!!! Good news that you get to go home

Lucky-buddies neighbor just lost his finger from a copperhead bite while fishing....

That is GREAT news! Glad you get to go home. Thanks for sharing this experience with us. I always wear my snake boots this time of year and this story is a reminder to me of why it's important.

It seems like I've seen more snakes the last two years here in North Texas than the previous ten years. I even had a bright green ribbon snake come in the house and stretch out on the first step of the staircase. I thought the little guy was a toy that got left out but when I went to step over it and it moved...well...I didn't know I had that kind of agility still. It turned into a scene from 'Riverdance - Hillbilly Style' right there on the staircase. Once I calmed down and regained my senses, I had a good laugh and picked up the little snake to relocate outside.

How long did they say before you'll feel normal again - no pain and no swelling?

My wife kills a few with the lawnmower every summer. And unfortunately near our house where the kids play...

Great news on getting to go home.

My wife said you need to head straight to the nail salon and get a Pedicure... Glad your ok...

Cant beleive no one has asked what you were doing drunk in the woods wearing flip flops?

Glad you are feeling better.

With feet like that I'd recommend not wearing flip flops in public. Just kidding man. Glad to hear no major harm done and your heading home.

I figured hunting those College Station hogs.........

Im right down the road on osr and im covered with them...they get bad around this area.

Did they put in a catheter? Think that would hurt just as bad.

Good luck

Glad your ok. I agree that flip flops are a bad idea in Texas except at the pool or on the beach. If it aint snakes its fire ants, scorpions etc....
