  1. What are bungee balls?
    How close do you have to get to a snake to hit it with a 22?

  2. Bungee balls are the little short pieces of bungee cord that have the balls on one end to secure tarps with. The 22 bullet had "shot" in it so it is accurate from a few feet away. It helps counteract the trembling factor. I did use it to dispatch a copperhead under the deck and the one in my pocket was an extra.

  3. How in the world could you carry all that in your pockets? I'm wondering what it says about you that carry 2 rolls of dental floss in your pockets. Surely you don't floss all day long. I'm guessing you use it for something else, like tying off umbilical cords. But 2 rolls?
