Thats funny
Not looking for shovel action, want to mount one for sure
Mainly just want to do it and eat them
Its a long drive to go out that way for 1 or even no snakes, would like to find a mother lode
Do farmers/ranchers allow snake hunters on land?
Maybe some out there can do some checking into it for me  (AND U) :tup:

How the heck do you kill them with cutting their head off?  Chokehold?

Pinch of copenhagen in a rattlesnakes mouth will kill em dead. No damage and perfect for the taxi!

Do you need any type of permit for rattlesnakes? I would imagine there wouldn't be a problem killing one if you run into it, but this is WA, and common sense does not always match up with regs.

well if you are real gutsy get a needle and syringe and inject 3 - 5 cc's of acetone at the base of the head.  recommend 16 gauge or bigger needle

Funny when I lived in AZ we always wanted to avoid them, Up here people want to go find them   :)

I always did enjoy seeing them at a safe distance but liked to hike in the winter, better temps and less snakes.

In God we trust, all others bring cash.

Do not say, Why were the old days better than these? For it is not wise to ask such questions.
