Looks like a "Timber rattler" to me as well Jazz.

Congrates on a fine rattler.

You both win the grand prize ;D

Now that is a cool looking bow along with the best kind of snake. A dead rattleheadedcoppermoccasin.

Amen Bird!! The only good one is a DEAD one!

They eat good & the hides are nice to have.

One of the guys I used to work, and is now retired with will get in your $hit if he finds out you kill a rattler, and don't bring in the meat. I've had it a couple of times out here, and its pretty tasty ;D

It's very tasty,Dennis.
I found out how to remove the entire spinal coloum,No bones ;D.

Thats interesting. When I've eaten them it was just a cross sectionwith the bones. Do you just fillet them like a fish? ???

Dennis,
It takes a little time at first.
You start where ya cut the head off @.
Cut out the first 1" of the spinal coloum,So you have something to grab onto, then yank it down.
Just like ya do to remove the skin.
It may take ya a time or two,When ya get though-ya never forget...like riding a bike.

Back in my dirt bike/ quad racing daze, we'd always go to Lil Sahara to ride and make the rattlesnake roundup. They are quite tasty, tastes like chicken only chickens don't hide under rocks to bite ya!

No-{ Bird } chickens don't hide under rocks to bit ya. .

Yea,they eat good,It's like $25 Bucks a pound plus to buy it in the food industry

Hmmmmm Wonder if I raced against you. I raced dirt bikes, and three wheelers, and did a lot of sand drags out at Little Sahara. Started in 82 and raced to 87.

Sorry didn't see this post b-4 today, Dennis. I bet we did throw some dirt at each other in that timeframe. I had # 370 from my 1976 RM 370 that I first started with at 59th and Douglas. Rode the Quad from '85-90.

I spent a lot of weekends at 59th and Douglas. I was racing the 3 wheeler pro class.

Also did a race at the Meeker racetrack. Half on the oval and then you jumped off of turn one and twisted around and jumped back on at turn 2. I could hang with the top 3wheelers in the tight stuff, but they had me motorwise around 3&4and the long straights. Came in 3rd on that one and then started to play with the motor and moved for a while to Ft Rucker Alabama. Did some awesome CC stuff on a PE 400 Suzuki and Quad racing.
