I am interested in purchasing duck calls that were made by Mike McLemore. I am a family member and they have a sentimental value.

That may be Joe and he may have killed it but he didn;t kill it in last 30 days. I've got it at least 12 times through emails over last 8 months or so. All with a differnet story.

Don't even know your own grandson... :D

I feel my grandad would do the same. He thinks highly of me and I have zero doubt he would be telling everybody about the snake I killed also.

I've seen it too crow.

And these snake pictures drive me crazy. The picture uses forced perspective. Same thing all the deer hunters so for their pictures. Hold the snake out as close to the camera as you can and still get the person in frame "as a point of reference". The thing is, your point of reference is skewed because the snake is so close. There's not a good way to tell the size of that snake sine you have no valid reference.

Don't get me wrong, that's still probably a good'un. But there ain't no way that kids holding an eight foot snake out on the end of a stick like that.

Odd timelines aside, it looks like a 5' snake held up with a 6' stick. It's definitely a good sized snake, but without proper perspective on it's actual length, it's tough to get an idea of how big it really is. I like how people think 9' long rattlesnakes with 2.5" fangs exist.
