Damn, I have heard water moccasins were aggressive, but I never realized
they were that aggressive. I'm glad they aren't around here. ;-)

I once threw a rock at a water moccasin swimming in a canal in
Florida. That damn thing changed direction, came right at me and was
crawling up the bank when I hightailed it out of there. Still gives me
chills thinking about it.

Sure it wasn't a garter snake?

Why would it be a garter snake? John doesn't drive a chick car, like a
RAV4

Y'know, I understand the arch of the shot and recoil, but I always
thought those m-79's were odd looking with the stock turned upside
down. I never really was around them much but I'm more familiar with
the 203

LOL!

Now that's a new one on me.

How could the dog tell where to find it on a snake?

In my opinion, they were best fired from the prone position, with the
butt of the stock on the ground. It wasn't very damn accurate no
matter how it was held. But hey, being close counts in horseshoes and
hand grenades, right? This 'hand grenade' just had a little more
range.

The vent is near the last fat spot on the body ... if you can't accept
a figure of speech. *;-)
I bet he got him right behind the head if you want to be technical. I
know the snake was impressed by the bite.

LOL!

I knew what you were saying, it's just ... how you said it.

I had a big black racer on my pool deck I was trying to grab a while
ago. He was striking at me like a rattle snake and aggressive as hell.
My current dog (Auggie Doggie) came in under my arm and bit his ass. All
of a sudden that snake curled up like a hockey puck with nothing but a
couple inches of his tail sticking out, trying to look like a rattler.
I picked it up and threw it out in the yard, still rolled up. After a
minute it straightened out and "raced" away.

We do have black racers here. Now that is a beautiful snake, if you can
say that about a snake. We also have a hog-nosed snake. Damn ugly, but
it's interesting in that it will play dead.
