this has worked for me and hopefully it may help you.

good luck!
julian,i know the op and when she says she puts her back after several strikes,enough to stress out the snake,that is not giving in and letting the snake know you are affraid.im not meaning to come off rude in any way,but she already knows that method.this snake is truley wicked.
