Title: Uses for Aoudad sheep skull & horns? [PICS ADDED]
Post by: budmenchaca on July 10, 2012, 04:54:22 pm

I have an Aoudad skull and horns in relatively good shape and was curious to know if anyone knows what I might use it for.

I've heard of the horns being used as knife handles and possibly even used in composite Asiatic bows but is there anything else I'm missing?

I'm sure there are more uses but I can't find any online.

(If I end up not using them, I'll offer them up as trade on the trade blanket area of this forum.)

Thanks for checking this post out and I hope to hear a few ideas from you guys and gals!

Do you still have the horns? Are you willing to trade?

I saw a video about those guys one time. Pretty funny really.

I once wore a bull horn like that, code piece style, for halloween when I dressed as the devil.  :o :o ;D ;D ;D ;) Met my future wife that night. Really! Again,  :o :o ;D ;D ;D
