Mike Yancey at Pine Hollow Longbows should have some... Find his website in the sponsors list at the top of the page.

They are hard to come by this year. I've been looking for some myself. If I find extra I'll call you Jim.

Jim, I don't think Mike Yancey carries Copperheads.  But like mechslasher said, they aint cheap.  I gave 80 bucks for some once and was glad to do it after looking for a long time.

I have a neighbor who breads pythons some really rare types of albinos and such and sometimes he has one that will pass and I always wanted to try and use the skin.Maybe you could contact a snake dealer they may have some loss they will get rid of maybe even a few sheds for free.Just a thought.Good luck
