Thats a lot of bites for one person to have received.

We wear them in S Texas on a hunt because the owner requests it. Mine are Justin boots IIRC. VERY comfortable. Keeps my legs from thorns and cactus while stalking pigs etc...

I've been struck only 2 times in my life. Once on a thumbnail by a small copper head. Should have been wearing at least gloves, got lucky. Once on the achilles by a moccasin, in rubber boots. No big deal.

We can keep Larry Root and all his idiotic blabber and user names on here, but we can't get Ralph back..... Whiskey Tango Foxtrot, over....
