Title: Step back! I have a hoe and a shovel in my hands........... Post by: droner on June 17, 2014, 12:34:38 EDT That's what I said in more colorful terms to the copperhead I found crawling into my garage.
It was about 2 feet long but not very big around. But it's still a copperhead. And now it's a dead one. Title: Re: Step back! I have a hoe and a shovel in my hands........... Post by: RockyMtnVol on June 17, 2014, 01:51:03 EDT That's the best kind...

Been to see him twice in person in the last 6 months. Really talented guy. Not a fan of his politics, however. Title: Re: Step back! I have a hoe and a shovel in my hands...........

Closing to shovel distance is disconcerting. My hat is off to Droner.
2) Steve Earle is awesome. "My name's John Lee Pettimore..." Title: Re: Step back! I have a hoe and a shovel in my hands........... Post by: droner on June 17, 2014, 05:44:05 EDT 1) Into the garage?

I considered using the Ruger .357 which is loaded with .357 hollowpoints, but I figured either the concrete, one of my cars or myself would suffer considerable ricochet damage. Title: Re: Step back!
