When I lived in S.E. Idaho we had a problem with some of the local kids going out and catching rattlers and cutting off the rattles and letting the snake go again. The only thing worse than buzzing at your feet is NO buzzing. The local cattlemen found out who was doing it and had a polite talk with them after a few cows and horses got hit. We never "hunted" for snakes, but we came accross them quite often. They are great on the grill. Peel the skin off, get rid of the guts and throw them on the grill whole. We found the best medicine for snakes was a stick and a shovel. We would pin down the head with the stick and cut it off with the shovel, then we would bury the head.
