More like Hawaiian Tropic suntan lotion, infused with nuclear-ized DEET. I don't know who may have said otherwise earlier in the thread but trust me when I tell you to prepare for some nasty-assed, near invisible,silent biting flies that draw blood and cause grape sized, painful and itchy knots on your body that hang for a week or two. To illustrate,imagine folks with leprosy who hid from others behind some poison ivy bushes.
Chiggers are worse. They'll make you, without any discretion or care whatsoever,scratch your balls in front of nuns and school kids.
Texas' bugs are silent assassins to unprotected skin. Most people never notice.
The only thing worse than a liberal is a liberal that thinks they're a conservative.

When we first moved to Kansas my wife got destroyed by chiggers. Strangely, the boys and I were never touched the two years we lived there.

Ed, I do think they like certain people more than others. I always get em, just not where Bob did. Junction area ranch.
And Bob I'm still laughing with you on this, not at you.

Plus,I love making money while socializing with the good folks in my circle.
I don't think I'm going to buy snake gaiters either unless someone seriously convinces me of the necessity. I remember Pat telling me on the way down to our dove hunt that he's never seen a rattlesnake in the areas we're hunting. Of course, we shot one the next morning.
Plus, it would make for a great photo op were Ingwe to be the one to suck out the poison while wearing his leopard, butt floss panties.
OK: First off you suck for making money whilst having fun. Second: No worries about you getting bit by a snake-professional courtesy and all....( can you believe he said that???  )  Thirdly- with all that heat I will have frequent fainting spells and need mouth to mouth resuscitation from....well...you know....

Rest assured I will only give him a 5 round mag, and two cartridges...

You vid reminds me...Im going back to Texas in June with a friend who is scared to death of snakes. I told him there were no worries...the snakes in Texas are so big they are easy to see.

If you hear a 6 year old girl scream and then immediately hear a pistol shot, it will mean I have walked up on a snake.

I talked to the ranch guide/manager today and asked if I should bring my snake boots or regular ones and with out hesitation he said if you got um definitely bring them
He said the snakes will all be out with the weather being so warm and they are ornery. He said down there they don't rattle any more they hiss and strike mid calf

Well, here's hoping I don't see one on my next trip. Snakes have a sworn enemy in me.

I don't normally dig around in armadillo holes under rock piles while I'm dove hunting.
