I’ve heard WAY too many of these tragic, sad stories where spring turkey hunters go afield in SC to match wits with the great eastern wild Turkey only to have an up-close and personal encounter with the ill-tempered and not-so-hesitant to strike copperhead snake!
The majority of these run-ins end with all parties leaving the situation safe and happy, but all too often, the encounter ends tragically; all one has to do is type in a quick search of this site, and thread after thread of such tragic encounters will pop up immediately. There were at least 5 tragic cases last year.
I’m writing this to bring awareness so that YOU might avoid suffering the trauma so many on here have endured! DO NOT BE THAT GUY! Do not be the next hunter to have a deadly run-in with the beautiful but deadly Copperhead Snake…………………….
WITHOUT GETTING PAID$$$$$$$$$$$$$
If you run into a copperhead snake (or any other ~20” or longer snakes with beautiful skin…but especially copperheads)
and you are the type of human that simply must kill snakes on site, I will pay you good money for that dead snake.
All you have to do if you kill a snake this year to receive $$ from me:
1. Kill snake DEAD; please try to keep damage limited to the head by shooting it’s freaking head off from very close range…or use a .22 with rat shot to the head. If you are the chopping type….hack at him with one or two precision strikes to the noggin, as flailing away from a distance while dancing around and chanting some unintelligible, sub-conscious, fear-of-God-driven mixture of cuss-words and tongues will usually render the skin useless to me.
2. After making sure the snake is VERY DEAD, carry him by the tail to a sack or bucket or sone other receptacle that will allow you to transport it to your freezer.
3. Put snake in a big ziplock bag or a grocery bag, and throw it in the freezer.
4. PM me in here or reply to this thread letting me know you have the goods.
I will be in SC this year from April 2 thur April 14, and I will connect with you and set up a date and time to meet you and exchange cash for the dead snake.
I am paying $2.00 per inch for copperheads 16”-25”. I am paying $3.00 per inch for 25+” copperheads.
I will pay a $25.00 bonus for any 45” copperhead that is not shot/hacked up (45” of useable skin).
The offer is open until I have enough copperhead skins to do 4 bows.
If not in SC, I will pay for shipping of a frozen snake.
Moochy Grassy-ass!
