Oh my God, it's a fawkin' snake!!

[rrrr]

I was golfing today with a couple of my friends, and on the 6th hole we discovered a five foot long cottonmouth on the tee box.
Now, I grew up in New Mexico and Arizona, so snakes aren't a big deal. I caught my first rattlesnake when I was 12.
So I jumped out of the cart and grabbed a club to pin down the snake. When I had it immobilized I was telling my buddy to give me my cell phone so I could take a picture. Of course he wouldn't even come close enough to give me the camera. I grabbed it myself.
So then I picked it up with the club handle, and kinda poked it at my pals, thay took off running. After a couple of minutes I let the snake go in the tall grass next to the tee box.
I have been laughing my ass off ever since. The adreniline rush from messing with a poisonous snake is a trip. I hadn't felt that rush since I was a kid.
LOL, just give me some khaki shorts and a betacam, we'll make a TV series.
:D :D
EDIT!!
Check out the pic at the bottom :D :D

I caught a sidewinder last year and put it in a pillow case and it is a rush, a big rush to handle a poisonous snake. Mine wasn't a 5 foot long cottonmouth though. :D

But a bigger rush for me is to empty the clip from my Glock .40 in his ass. Sorry, but I'm just skerred shitless of snakes !!
