Guy shoots Two Rattlesnakes with one Arrow
Am Shooting Journal ^ | 10/25/2017 | C Bailey

A rattlesnake interaction gets interrupted with an arrow and broadhead.

You always hear “The only good snake is a dead snake.” And you will also hear “The only thing better than a dead snake is two dead snakes.” Well, if that is you, you will enjoy this video.

The Red Arrow team is hunting in Texas when they come along some funky business going down between two rattlers. Kip draws back, sets the pin, and lets it fly. He misses the first shot and the snakes don't even flinch!

He eventually connects with an arrow and might have just got himself a pair of new snakeskin boots.

Hitting a snake with a bow would be difficult, but hitting two snakes on the same shot… well that is pretty impressive. Of course, many antis caught wind of the video and he has received some pretty harsh backlash from the key board warriors on social media

Unfortunately, that is just part of the world we live in now. But anyone who lives in Texas and is in areas where these things are everywhere, you know what danger they can represent. Read the rest and see the guy shoots two rattlesnake with one arrow video here.

Arsehole. One day you’re out having a little fun with the wife, minding your own business, and some arsehole comes along with a bow.

This is the kind of thing you MUST brag about to family and friends. It only happens once.

Messing with snakes made Tiresias' life more complicated.

Just watching the video creeps me out, but damn, that was some kind of good shot. Memo to self: don’t forget hand grendades on future hunting trips.

Not that difficult a shot.

I was concerned about this during the early part of archery season around here. Now our overnight lows are taking care of putting the snakes back in their dens. I hope to never see such a snake dance while I’m afield. Also, I’d have gone to the sidearm rather than wasting a $15 arrow/broadhead.
