i see, you think they'd be useless if they were cooked? i was eating chicken fer dinner today, eyeing the leg bone as a possible small broadhead, but i figured cooking it would make it pretty brittle. -jimmy

I've bitten clean through chicken bones. DOn't think that would make a good point ;)..

 Dang, Keenan! :o What an animal. ;)

son of massey:
 i have heard the best bones are the leg bones of things like deer becuase they are dense as they have to put up with so much shock given the way deer run.   cow or horse leg bones would probably also be good becuase of the weight of the animal-the bone must be pretty strong-and again becuase of the way the animal runs.   the little i have tried with bone broadheads i found the leg bones to be the easiest to get flat sections of bone of about the right size to use.  not to say ribs wont work, but this is what i heard a long time ago.
