A friend and I took a trip to the Sandhills in NC back on Thursday Oct 2.

Mid day, we spotted a small snake on the right hand side of the road, I was crusing at about 45mph maybe, and I swerved to miss it.



I didnt swerve hard enough though and just barelyclipped it's head.



I feel SOOOOOOOOO bad about it. This was a lifer for me too!! It was a small guy too, probably an '08.



All in all, the trip showed us 1 small Simus I killed 1 adult Simus freshly hit and one northern Pine freshly hit and finally one VERY destroyed red mole king, probably over 24 hours old.

The only live snakes we saw were 2 juvi coachwhips.

I'm at work now. All three DOR snakes were clean hits, no bloody gut messes except for the mole king. I can put pix up when I get home tonite.

Just........wanted to share I guess. This was my first simus I'd ever seen, I think I havent even seen a CB one with my own eyes yet. Very diappointing.
