Yeah, you can keep the snake carcass just send me the skin!!     We got 47"s of snow in Dec. and any snake that is longer than that is deep is too big to be livin' up here anyway! Shawn

[Killdeer]

Wow! A whole six-foot sub's worth!  

[John Havard]

Biggie, aren't you 6'5" tall?  If so, that snake is over 7' long?  Holy smokes!

Hey Biggie,
I walked up on this one last Sunday morning, last weekend in December:



Never a dull moment in the deep south is it!

Those things would keep things interesting for sure. Are they any good to eat? Also what kind of head do you use on them? We have a few around here but i have never seen one in all the years I have hunted, if I did I would shoot it.

[Biggie Hoffman]

Naw, really, this is as big a diamondback as I've ever seen. We'll skin him out and put him on a board in the Man Cave.
I'm 6'4" and 340# so you can see, even with the Chuck Adams pose, he's healthy.
With him gone, our deer heard should show an increase this spring :-)

Hey Biggie, where were you huntin'? FL?

[Octavian]

That rattler is huge.(to me it is)

[Dirty Bill]

They have some really big ones in Maryland where I used to hunt.

What kind is that one chris?  

[Ga.boy]

That's a cottonmouth.

[Derrick Tynes]

I haven't run up on one this year in MS, but I do see more rattlers in Dec. and Jan. than anybody should.

No offense Biggie....but you can keep that bad boy right in your home state and thats the number one reason I don't hunt the South...      :eek:
