Is all intestines created equal?

(1/1)

Jakesnyder:
Looking into making gut bow string. I've heard of the natives using bear intestines but would other intestines work? Like possum or coon? How do you process them?

EdwardS:
Pop used hog intestines.  Sausage casing, to be exact.  I plan to do the same thing.

Ryan Jacob:
Pig, sheep, and bear are the most popular for strings. I’m guessing that as long as it’s long enough oof a piece, it should work. Chicken and beef intestines are better for eating than string because of how small chicken is and how fatty beef is.
