Title: do you think she will BLOW!!!!
Post by: coaster500 on February 03, 2012, 06:36:44 pm

there is about 1/4 to 3/8 inch on the back with some pretty good size knots. I got some goat hide and a bunch of sinew, I am going to use one or the other on this one. It's a spookie stave for sure but I haven't had the pleasure of blowing one up yet     :)

What you shooting for as far as weight & length. Off hand I would say go with the rawhide.

I would still go with rawhide. Goat is thin and light, should be good protection for the back.
