Dang I think you've got it.  Nice story, well told with just the right amount of suspence.

I give it a 9.5.

Curtis,

The pictures of Texas in full bloom are really impressive. Sounds like you guys had a wonderful hunt. Thanks for letting us enjoy it with you.

Thanks you guys....that was fun!!  Very much appreciate the time and effort it took to take pics and tell the story!!! CK, you are a mad man!  Not sure if you will ever profit from a therapist, so I'd like to apply as your psychological buddy.....I don't know how tall you are, but that dang snake could have hurt someone even if he wasn't poisonous!!  I'd personally like an account of how you nabbed him in detail...and an explanation of why ya didn't just shoot him??  Thanks again!

Thanks guys for the great adventure.  I've made the long trek to south Texas the last 2 Marchs from northern MN to chase hogs.  There is something very special about the brush country.  I absolutely love the early mornings.  The sounds and sunrises are extraordinary.  Curtis you would make an excellant professional writer but I'm sure you don't need another job.  Thanks again,  Chad

Please dont call Jerry until you've looked over his website. Jerry is a very busy guy and his website answers most of your questions. When you talk to him please mention that I suggested you get ahold of him. I hope all your future hunts are the awesome quality that Jerrys hunts generally are.
