Title: SO close, and a little too close

So I went to a WMA Sunday and got a bird to within about 50yds, but for some reason he would not come through the palmettos. He eased off after about an hour of us playing hide and seek. As I was slipping through the woods headed to the truck, I was on a small pine flat and taking my sweet time, when BAM!!!!! This dude hit me in the ankle. Thank God for snake boots. He was buried under the pine straw, I never saw him till him came out, struck my leg and then slithered a few feet away and started rattling. I am not scared of snakes, but prefer to look at them at a distance. COuldnt bring myself to waste a $9 turkey load, and he was courteous enough not to stay on the offensive, so I let him go after some photos and a video.
