No glove should be used to pick up venomous snakes, proper handling procedures are always a must. I believe gloves should only be used as secondary protection, not for direct handling. I appologize if my post came across that way. I use leather welding gloves for handling nonvenomous ( here in Utah illegal to catch venomous), as the area I catch in is a shale like hillside, and for those who have chased whipsnakes and racers, It's difficult to watch where your hands are going when chasing those little lightning bolts across the ground. I don't consider the gloves snake prove at all, not even snake resistant, I consider them an extra barrier that might deflect a strike from an unseen rattler. Again I appologize if my post seemed to state otherwise.

Does anybody know what model gloves this guy was wearing because I use hex armor gloves occasionally and the guy Clem who sold me the "venom defender gloves" said there has never been a case of a bite getting through that particular brand. Was he wearing the venom defender gloves or some other version of Hex armor? I really need to know this because if it was the venom defender gloves mine are going in the garbage tonight - although, I have never personally had a problem with them.

You guys do realize this thread is 3 years old and there are new and advanced versions of hex gloves now. Google them. Good stuff. Never to be considered safe for free handling though.
