Only person I know that wears them, started after he stepped ona rattler in the dark!
Said when he felt that solid, but not hard, shape under his foot he knew what it was.
Quick reaction in his part, coupled with a cool early season.
It really surprises me so few bites occur during turkey and archery season. Blundering around in the dark when it's warm.....often think about that.
Parents who say they have good kids..Usually don't!

There are some interesting videos out there of turkey hunters sitting on the ground and having a venomous snake crawl across their legs. That would be a little unnerving I think.
Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.

I may not be smart but I can lift heavy objects
I have a shotgun so I have no need for a 30-06.....

Not over my legs. I had sat down in a mesquite thicket after hearing some gobbles in front of me. After a couple of minutes, a rattler slithered from behind between my feet ( sitting on a stool) No buzzing or nothing. I had sat down in it's path and it just went on it's way like I wasn't there. Not a pleasant experience. They were everywhere at this place

I had a rabbit come right up to my feet before. And last season squirrel hunting a wood rat carrying nut hopped between me and the tree I was leaning against. But no issue with snakes.
