LOL......sorry it's been really nuts lately! I just got done ripping down the website and rebuilding it from scratch.

If you are looking for a large python hook, you can go wrong with The Guru Monster Hooks, truthfully all the other websites out there claim their python hooks are the strongest, well not only do they lie, but the hooks are front heavy, cumbersome, and a pain in the butt to use. The huge chunk of aluminum on the front of the hook throws the whole deal off kilter. Plus the head will actually pull out of the shaft if you put too much weight on it (I've had it happen).

Feel free to check'em out : http://www.thesnakeguru.com/gpage.html3.html

Everyone loves these hooks, I haven't had one person say they didn't, they are perfectly balanced making them more than comfortable to use.

I don't know the exact answer, but I would tell you that no question is dumb unless you don't ask it!!!

Lmao, well I deal with dumb questions all day and then when I'm on call, well it gets 100 times worse when they call after hours to ask us to come clean bird poop off the balcony of the condo that they rented and had been in for 2 days already!!!
