I don't doubt your experience, and a boomslang might very well suit you, but I seriously doubt anyone has recommended them as a good first hot. For one, they have an incredibly potent venom that has resulted in fatalities, and two, they require a monovalent antivenom, which from what I've heard, can be problematic to obtain, even with import permits.
