Old fat diamondback. That could have been bad.

Glad you didn’t get bite,

It just sit there I stumbled over a few gas lines screamed a little then looked around to make sure nobody was watching me couldn’t shoot him because of being so close to the gas lines by the time I got my shovel he had crawled into some weeds wasn’t going to go look for him

'Biggest one I've ever come across personally is probably still out there. Reared up as I drove by in the CanAm and went under it after he gave me the stink eye. I did not pursue him in the tall grass, but I know exactly where it happened. Perhaps we'll meet again.  Glad you didn't get bit. I had a baby tap my hiking boot in the two-track, right at dawn, a few weeks ago and it does indeed wake you right up. ![[Linked Image]](https://i.giphy.com/media/v1.Y2lkPTc5MGI3NjExdHA5bWU3N2Z4eGVub2ljMzJjYjJsZzN5a2RtOGZld3Z1dDE0ZDI0NCZlcD12MV9pbnRlcm5hbF9naWZfYnlfaWQmY3Q9Zw/viEM13XhzGgA8/giphy.gif)

I'm finally starting to watch every step. Kinda like learning about red wasps, 'cept the remedy of getting hit is a LOT more expensive...IF you make it in in time.

You guys must have a shortage of pigs. I used to have them everywhere. Then the pigs showed up. I have now seen 3 rattlers in the last 5 years. Not on my place but on the dirt roads. I got out and looked, but didn’t molest them.
Without a sense of urgency, nothing ever happens.
Boy, if I say "sic em", you'd better look for something to bite. Sam Shelley, Rancher Muleshoe Texas 1892-1985 RIP
