  1. I was checking around a water hole Wednesday for deer tracks and the grass was over knee high in places from all the recent rain.  I turned to go back the way I came and took two steps, and as the third step came down, I just missed stepping on the tail of a black timber rattler that was slithering away from the water's edge.  About six inches of his tail were still next to my foot and I jumped and let out a whimper like a little schoolgirl (sure glad no one was there to witness that).  In that split second, he could have turned my way and struck and changed my life completely.  Fortunately for me, he decided to go about his way and was back in the thick grass leaving me there pretty shook up.  To say he scarred the crap out of me is an understatement. 

    Just a bit of advice to my fellow hunters, keep your eyes open for them little b-stards so one doesn't ruin your day (or life).
