I had this sent to me this morning..wow!
This is the golf course off Hartley Bridge Road in Macon.
This is a timber rattler killed last week-end. It is by far
The biggest rattle snake I have ever seen!!
Although diamond back Rattlers get this big and maybe even bigger,
I did not know those timber rattlers reached that size. I have not
talked to Ollie about how many rattles it had or it's actual size and length was,
but since he is about 5'9' the snake appears to be at least 8 feet long if not longer, and is bigger around than his arms.
He killed the snake on number 8 at Oakview while looking for his ball. He killed the snake with a 2 iron.
The man holding the snake is a greens keeper.
