That thing is a true monster.
That picture will haunt me for the whole bow hunt now.

That snake looks to be close to 7 ft almost, give or take a few inches. Snake like that could hurt you really bad. I agree that would haunt me for an entire hunt as well. That was one thing I wouldn't have to contend with when I was in Alaska, just bears and wolves. Have those here in New Mexico with the snakes man.

LAST EDITED ON Aug-11-10 AT 12:27PM (MST)[p]You're right slam. A snake that big stands a good chance at breaking the bones of the lower leg of a person if they get the right amount of speed and hit the right spot.

It's obviously a BIG rattler, but don't let the camera angle fool you. It's not quite as big as it looks in the photo. They used a wide angle lens, held the snake close to the camera while the guy stood back and held it away from his body with a stick. It's a typical "trophy photo" trick we all use to make our animals look bigger.

Free use of Land for DEER Hunting with stand...
on a piece of land where there are plenty of deer roaming around.. I put up a stand in a nice place where several game trails cross. But, due to some incurred obstacles getting to the stand I've decided to forgo any more attempts
at bagging a trophy deer this year ..So, if anybody wants my deer stand for the rest of the year, it's open to any one who would like to take a stab at it......
My heart can't take another day like last Saturday.

There was 10 of them, Private land lease, on a trail bushhogged to a food plot.
Great place, lots of rabbit's and squirrels. kind of wierd as it is on a sand hill with mostly red and white oak's, not swampy at all. was bushhogged because of all the stinging nettles.
