Thanks Ryan....didn't know if that would work with Hide...but I guess it would be no different than laying out Rawhide.....Appreciate the help..... I am going to tan the Hide also....to beautiful to waste....may have to eat this Beaver too...... :P

Thanks Outback...thats what I am hoping mine will look like when done also...

Justin Snyder:
Beaver tastes great Mike. If you can fillet a fish you can handle a beaver tail. I did it like Ryan said. The real shame is how many beaver tails I threw away before I started building bows. The water conservancy paid me $30 each to kill everything I could in about 30 miles of creek. They even got me permission to trap the indian reservation. I killed about 100 in one spring.

juniper junkie:
so Bob, did you just salt and dry the tail and then glue it on the bow? I have some tails I was going to tan, but maybe just moistening and glueing would be better? I spent a lot of my younger years chasing beaver ;)

Parnell:
Candle light and a bottle of wine?  Couldn't resist. >:D
