Had two friends helping me move a stand. One of them looks down and goes "Snake" then he said "Another snake" Was 2 copperheads screw'n not two feet to the left of the ladder. He wasnt wearing snake boots and just happened to look down. Took out both of them with some .20 gauge buckshot. I always wear snake boots but still would hate to be looking at one if I bent down to pick up my cellphone or to get a deer I just shot.
Kinda hard to see them in this pic before I shot them:
Here they are on the road minus their heads:
