Monster. Without fail, they scare the he-- out of me everytime.
An unethical shot is one you take, that you know you shouldn't.

They are moving pretty good I guess. I almost walked on this one this week at my lease. I took the tractor and shredded for over 3 hours so they would be easier to see when we walk to our blinds. FYI.....All of the big snakes I have ever walked up on have been in October.Keep your eyes on the ground. ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2020/09/full-8162-254945-rattler.jpg) [/quote]

High fence, low fence, no fence, it really doesn't matter as long as you're hunting!

And now he/she is a good rattlesnake! Too bad it wasn't found and killed 5-6 years earlier before it had a chance to reproduce.

That would make a couple nice belts or hat bands.
