We have several good snake stories from dirt biking days in KY. Best had to be the copperhead we found. Had a big group. Stopped in a dried creek bottom to wait for everyone to catch up. My uncle looks down to see a copperhead by his foot. Big guy on a quad was with us. Pulls out a Derringer. Walks over to it. Straddles it and shoots it right between his feet. I was a kid and didn't know it at the time. The fella was diabetic. Prosthetic legs from knees down on both sides. As a kid I just thought he was crazy until they let me in on it.
