Finally mounted the rattler we killed several weeks back and hung it above my office desk.

Not bad for a guy that drives a Honda CR-V. Albeit, an all wheel drive.

I drive a Ridgline, and I think it came out really good.

That is not a "rattlesnake mount;" rather, a tanned skin.

The Mrs wanted the rattles. And, since she spotted the snake, I acquiesced.

I hope you apologized or at least said, "scuse me".

No need to apologize, Geauxt, she actually enjoyed it.

By the way, you're the one that noted in the original picture (the one of the hoist) that it'd make a nice board mount. Otherwise, I'd of never done it. Really, I wouldn't have know to do it. Many thanks.

And, Little Dong 1 is currently drying a copperhead we killed yesterday while fishing. There were actually two of those bastards - juveniles, but after killing the first one with a brick the second one disappeared.

Great job.
I've seen the boat print beneath the skin and would like to have one. Any idea where I could find one?

Got it from the frame shop in Drusilla shopping center twenty years ago - I think it's Acadian Frame. Best of luck.

Mmmm Mmmm, Fried Rattlesnake.

A couple a Ten Points on either side would finish that wall out nicely.

Wouldn't be complete without the foot, Broke. Noticed you had your's in the painted gun pic, too.
