1934 - Alva Golfers Get Rattler

This interesting little news tidbit appeared in The Oklahoman, dated June 17, 1934, page 31, with headlines reading: "Alva Golfers Get Rattler, No Foolin'"

Alva, June 16 (1934) -- Special -- "The next time a duffer on the city golf course is seen off in the rough swinging his club wildly, he may be killing a snake sure enough.

"Four city golfers, looking for a lost ball, came upon a coiled diamond back rattlesnake just off the fairway on the No. 2 hole. The first golfer used a driver, the next a niblick but what finally did the trick was a mashie shot."
