Rattlesnakes
How many coon hunters encountered a rattlesnake while summer hunting this year. Thought I would post and see now that summer has ended and Fall has begun. Dave

I have summer hunted for over 60 years and I've never encountered a rattle snake a night. I've seen a few copperheads and about 400 million cotton mouths.

I’ve just encountered one so far this year hunting. I’ve encountered a bunch in my 68 years. They are just a way of life in south central Oklahoma. Never had a dog bit by a rattlesnake but get about one a year bitten by Cottonmouths.

We know a guy in Texas who makes enough catching rattlesnakes while hunting to pay for his gas. Said the meat goes to the Philippines, the glands to a pharmaceutical company and the skins to a US company. He's been bitten multiple times. He carries a bottle of Dex and benadryl with him. Crazy hobby for extra cash!!!

I’ve got the snake boots but I just couldn’t make myself hunt in the rattlesnake infested salt grass along the coast…the size of those rattlesnakes could definitely strike above the boots but I’m thinking about buying these snake proof chaps and wearing them over my snake proof boots…

Hey Dave
Now that the rattlers are denned up you better keep your eyes open for the snow snakes. As you probably know hand warmers are more effective than anti venom meds. I hear they are more common up in the high grounds but are found occasionally down here in the foothills. Just stay prepared and keep'em in the woods.
What's a snow snake lol. Man I hate snakes.

Rattlesnake
David Richardson, timber rattlesnakes are supposed to be rare in Texas, but every snake you post has been a timber rattlesnake. You must live in a area that has several timber rattlesnakes, consider yourself fortunate. I think they are the best looking rattlesnake, even though their venom is more toxic than most rattlesnakes, second only to the Mojave rattlesnake as both have neurotoxins in their venom. Dave

Thank you for posting these pictures and the info you shared. While I don't like to hunt when rattlesnakes are active, I have been fascinated with them and tried to learn as much about them as I can. We only have timber rattlesnakes in my part of the country and they live in the mountains. I think the timber rattlesnakes are the calmest and best looking rattlesnake of any species. Dave
