Default RE: Rattle snake hunting

The meat is good, mild flavor. Somwhere between fish and chicken in texture. We hunt them with walking sticks, whack them behind the head, hold the head down then cut it off. Take the body home, split it up the middle clean everything else out with a fillet knife and borax the pelt. We eat ours in the form of dinner sausage.
Be careful, respect the animal. "Side effects include, swelling of limbs, shaking, unconciousness, amputation of limbs and death".
Be very careful
