Good shot! My grandparents have a creek that runs through their property and a big pond,and the cotton mouths are thick.

Save that skin. Makes good decorative bow backings or trade items.

That's not a complete pass-through. Heck, very little penetration. Think you need a few more pounds in that bow.   :biglaugh:    :biglaugh:

Boy, I sure wish that Wyoming had cottonmouths in every creek. Well, maybe not.

Good shooting.  I'd skin it and save the hide for a bow or arrows.

Basinboy, Good shot on the cottonmouth.

Centaur, be glad you don't have them. They can be very bad, and they will stand their ground. If you bow has a nasty bite, then cottonmouth skins would be right at home on it.

Nice shooting! We have rattlesnakes and copperheads up here in TN. Seriously glad I don't have to deal with them ALL year long though. The thought of a snake never crosses my mind in December.

Risky shot you pulled off there, I usually go for a double lunger.    :)    :)    :)
