How many of y'all have been hit by a snake?

[Odessa]

Getting hit means struck in the boots or snake chaps without getting fangs or venon in you.  Getting bit means having fangs in your body (sometimes it is a "dry hit" with no venom).  I was hit once by a pygmy rattler - he couldn't penetrate my combat boots (a very small rattler, but with very toxic venom).

Never been actually hit by one although I have stepped on  a few and did the old hop, skip, and jump.  I did sit on one 2 years ago as I hurried to set up on a turkey.  Didn't know it until about 45 minutes later when I had to move to another location and when I got up it scampered off. I guess it liked it down there. Must of been a girl snake.

I got struck by a fat SC moccasin 3 years ago on the ankle of my danner pronghorn snakeboots.  Hunting all by myself in a deep swamp.  Scared the  out of me, and hurt pretty bad.  By the time I got them off, my ankle was blue.

Had some close calls over the years. In October while crawlin' around blood trailin', I placed my right hand down to lean forward for a better look anf was within 3-4 inches of a pygmy rattler.

Thanks Odessa, sorry I took Momma and the kids out for dinner.

I've been hit on the toe of a regular boot by a pigmy rattler once, fortunately it didn't penetrate. Another time a BIG water mocassin hit me in the calf at night when I was walking out of the woods. Thankfully I was wearing snake boots. This snake had to have been huge. It felt like someone hauled off and punched me in the calf as hard as they could!! I walked on water on the way out of that swamp!!!!

Back about 30 years ago got bite by a cottonmouth, had on a pare of rubber knee boots and jeans and the snake hit right at the top of the boots and on the seam of the jeans....all it did was leave two small red marks but scaried me...don't think there was any snake boots back then.

Never been bit or bit,but onetime I was walking up Creek when I was a kid. Had black snack go between my legs as I steeped. Wear my uncle slippers. I bet I was running a hundred miles a hour but did never move out of my spot. It was about six feet long. It was a wonder I did not kill my self on the slick rocks!

I hate it for you, thats one of those things that is funny and not funny at the same time.

Got bit by a black snake once between the index and thumb. Had to use a screw driver to pull him loose.

You may want to change your name to lucky or something. They may want to name a snake boot after you.  You have definatlely been lucky.

Never been hit or bit, knock on wood but have seen several out and about hunting.
