Killed this monster yesterday working on Jack's duck club out in the IV...62" long and 16 rattles...YIKES!!!!
Year of the (Rattle) Snake?
- Thread starter ilovesprig
- Start date
They will grow two through four rattles per year. So he could be as old as 8 or as young as 4. Unless he lost some along the way. Based on his size I'm thinking on the older side.

This was the year i had to throw down on snake boots for summer scouting. Went with the danner sharptails.
That’s a big one Steve! Western Diamondback. The IV is about the furthest west they’re found, before giving way to Southern Pacifics, Reds, sidewinders and Mojave Greens.
Quail hunting in the IV a couple of years ago My buddy John drew the short straw and had to crash through some thick brush to flush out some birds. We waited to shoot em as they flew out, and when John dove in we heard OH SHIT..BAM! He came out with this:

Have you looked into the effectiveness of "regular gaiters?"
From a pragmatic standpoint, I like it because it's one less thing to buy/store/remember/bring. However, they obviously are not snake pants. Boots + pants + gaiters would seem to provide some level of protection. Thoughts?
