What did you do, scare him to death? He's really clean and has his head. How did you kill him?

That's a big snake. Glad you won
Sometimes a little self-therapy is good for the soul... getting out to mother nature, finding peace in reading a good book, re-learning how to take care of yourself.

You guys need to study up on depth perception, camera angle, etc. How long is that stick he's using to hold it for the first photo?

That's a biggun! I killed one last year that was very similar - just a few inches shy of 7ft in Carrizo Springs. Monster snake! I've got a friend that does great work with snake skins if you are looking to do something with it. PM me if you do. He made me a rifle sling last year from my snake, and for payment I gave him the rest of the snake to use for other projects: wallets, slings, etc. Pretty good trade.
