Used a 5-6' tree limb to see if alive and what type of snake, guess he was sunning his belly in this morning's cool temps. With no gun, dispatched him with tree limb. He put on a nice, upright rattle show before meeting his maker. Approximately 34" sans head and 6-7 buttons.

No rattlesnakes in my country. Copperheads get killed. Every other type gets a pass. 800 Yard Steel Range Precision Rifle Instruction Memberships and Classes Available

Cotton mouths get a pass from me because I haven't met an aggressive one yet. I go out of my way to follow copper heads to kill them. I assume rattlesnakes are here, but I have not seen one in the eight years I have been here. A Democracy is when two wolves and a lamb vote on the dinner menu. That is why this country was specifically not designed as a Democracy. We are a Constitutional Republic.

The six Copperheads I've killed on my place had zero aggressiveness. They either didnt care about me, or wanted to get away from me. But I cut their heads off anyway. 800 Yard Steel Range Precision Rifle Instruction Memberships and Classes Available
