He was in the National Forrest headed into Torrence so it wasn't a populated area, if it had been around the house somewhere he would have surely died. I don't mind a rattler near bad as I do a cottonmouth, cottonmouth would have died!!

Dang, you let some fine eating get away.

Got fish, deer, cow, pig and who knows what else in the freezer, didn't need no snake for supper and weren't getting out of the truck and into the woods to chase him down, dude sure blends in, in one of those pics you cant even see him but he's there.

It's funny John, right after you posted this a driver friend of mine sent me a pic of a big ole Diamond Back. He was picking up a load of rough cut lumber over in Ok not 30 miles from my home town. They had this lumber stored in a shed in what they call pack's. Lift operator was bringing out the last one and Larry was up on his trailer and saw it. Operator didn't know it was up there. Said that was the 3rd one in 2 weeks. Had the other ones in the freezer to have a cook out.

what state was this in? someone at work here in Memphis swore up and down they got a rattle snake out from over by the airport. I didn't think they were in west TN or NMS.

The one I posted was in Grenada lake bottom, just on the edge of it. Seen more this summer than I have ever seen before.

Wow. Didn't know that were that close.

Amazing. I hike all over the place and never seen one. Thought cottonmouth and copperhead were the only two. Ain't scared of them as long as I see them first--which isn't always easy.
