Killed a 5' timber rattler today while bush hogging. I had a rattlesnake a little smaller than that think he was a little bad ass. After the disk modified him into 5-6 8" sections he realized his error.  A few years before that I was mowing around the lake and a moccasin struck the front tire and his fangs got caught in the rubber. LOL I finished mowing with him flopping around and around. He did not seem as amused as I was.
I love my country, but don't trust my government.

Its so hot - the snakes have stopped moving.  I wish somebody would tell the snakes at my place that. Killed 2 cottonmouths and a copperhead in about 2 hours Saturday morning.

That looks more like an eastern diamondback than a timber rattler. Easterns get much bigger
I don't want to pass quietly into the night. I want to slide in sideways kickin and screamin. Life really is awesome ... Soak it up while you can ...

I Ran over a timber rattler today on a dirt road. The first pass didn’t kill him so i backed up stoped my front tire on him and twisted the wheel a bit, heard a POP and that was it he was done.

Because it's well known on Aldeer that Ol Ben don't care too much about bellycrawlers.

I hate making a good first impression. There’s no way I can keep that shit up.
