9 1/2 foot rattler!!! Had a 5 inch wide head and 2 1/2 inch fangs.. Be careful in them woods!!!!!! It poked its head inside of a blind and he killed it. 
I don't always shoot deer, but when I do, I prefer B&C's.
I don't always shoot ducks, but when I do, I prefer banded ducks.

Too bad that's about a 4 ft stick, he's holding to get it close to the camera. Big snake- no where even close to 9 1/2 ft, but good try.

Don't tell me this snake got killed in texas now? I had a customer in South Carolina send it to me saying it was killed there....... Then the very next week had a guy swear to me it was shot in south Mississippi.

That's an eastern diamondback. Probably from Florida where they're prominent. They don't live in Texas and they don't grow to 9 feet. They are the biggest species of rattler though, and that is a big one. Just exaggerated.
Haha yea I polished that thing for hours.

You forgot the part about it weighing 400 pounds.
Practice doesn’t make perfect.
Practice makes permanent.

BS
That's about 2 foot longer than the biggest diamond back recorded. And Easterns don't get as long but hey are thicker normally.
