BowEd:
Cool.Yes I hear you about these arrows.They take some time too.

archeryrob:
How stiff are those? I still got a doe skin with the hair on in the freezer. I was too busy building a patio and refinishing the garage and building cabinets to do anything this year with it.

DC:
How wet does rawhide have to get to loose it's shape? Can you coat it with anything to help?

BowEd:
The rawhide is from beef hide.Dried I'd say at least 1/16" to 1/8" thick rock hard and stout.I've impregnated them with bees wax before and not too.Been in rain showers too.It takes a lot more then that to loosen anything on them.Ask Aaron.
Deer hide would be too thin I'm afraid.

DC:
I was going to use dog chews which is beef I assume. How did you impregnate it with bees wax? If you do it before rolling you couldn't get it wet and if you do it after rolling you can't do the inside.
