Hillbilly blood, a hard scrabble life

[dennishoddy]

I just started watching this, and OMG is this an idiot show. These guys go around in the woods, setting snares, trip wires to trigger Xbows, and some "alert device" that looks like a wannabe claymore to me.



I was told by a lawyer, that if somebody walks into a snare, or trap, and gets killed, the person setting it is guilty of 1st degree premeditated murder.

I used to work with a guy that got his lake shed broken into a couple of times, and he always talked about putting a trip wire up connected to a 12 ga, to find out WHO was stealing his stuff. After we talked, he quit thinking about it.

I used to work with a guy in high school who made a "claymore" on tripwire and placed it in on "deer trail" Blew up one of his uncle's cows instead.

It didn't end well

I guess not!

I first read this as Hillbilly Blond. I was looking forward to this thread.

New episode on now, and they are building a sluice to find gold. At least they are using hammers and not screw guns.

Same cast as on Moonshiners?

Man this show is a joke. I watched an episode last year where these hill jacks made a cross bow from an old leaf spring that must have weighed 150 lbs. these guys are out there.

You should have seen some of the stuff they rigged up to keep out the Patch Pirates and Crop Cops. Snelled fishhooks at eye level. Still creeps me out....
