GOTTA love crappy cell phone pics.
So.... My hunting buddy and I went to our hog hunting spot a couple of days back. We were almost successful in killing a hog. I shot him about 30 meters out and we followed the blood trail for about an hour and a half. During our search for the hog we came across this fellow. Our should I say my buddy almost stepped on this lovely Timber rattler. He was chilling on the back side of an uprooted stump. I heard rattling from about 10 meters away and I drew just to be safe. I found the direction, saw it, and released. I should say that it was a fair shot. Hoyt compound bow from about 30 feet. The broadhead tore a huge hole. Anywho.. The snake was a little over 4 feet and the rattle was 13 plus a button.
