rattlesnakes
I dont know if this is the right forum for this question or not. Anyways, we go rattle snake hunting every year. I wanted to butcher some this year. Can anyone tell me how far back to cut the head off to make sure I get all of the venom out?

RE: rattlesnakes
Ive had rattle snake at Sweatwater and it tasted so much like chicken, id rather just buy chicken and keep the rattle snake skin for backing bows.

RE: rattlesnakes
well I cut the rattlesnake right behind the head...I didnt die but I wish I woulda knew about the 4 inch thing before I cut it...the worst part was the first time i tried to stick the knife into the stomach the snake swung around and popped me...luckily I knew to cut the head off first...scared the hell out of me though
