Ranger B, They are hard to come by. I get a couple every year but most are very small. The ones that are big enough usually have bitten one of my dogs and have become mush from a big stick. ;D   Pat

Andrea, nothing wrong with talking about non-paying advertisers, just can't post direct working links to their sites.

I got the copperhead skins in the mail and neither will work.  One is tiny and the other clearly was beat to death because it has holes in it.   :(

limb,you could do them like Greg done his,that looks nice. :)

There were some nice ones on ebay last week at a starting bid of $89.95, no one bid on them. I have managed to trade for a couple pairs or I would have bid on them.

I was watching them on eBay also...but I can spend a lot less on Gas and get all of the rattlers I want.....aint Copperheads....but the cover the Limbs just the same....I thought $90 was a bit too steep....especially for my Blood!!! I also have a Drawer full of Cobras...so I really didnt need the Copperheads....
