Title: Bighorn sheep scraps and sinew.
Post by: loefflerchuck on December 15, 2014, 09:10:53 pm

I have lots of bighorns with the top curve removed. and elk sinew 13-15". I'm looking for near perfect staves. I have lots of staves with personality already. I would also take arrow shafts, points, snake skins, fish skins.......... Maybe something else.
 These horns were 30+" around the curl. Lots of horn here for handles nocks or whatever.

What kind of arrow shafts are you looking for? I have some POC and Tamarack shafts, some are tapered.

Makes for some super sharp tip overlays. Gorgeous marbled horn usually. Chuck I may take a chunk if you have any left a bit later. Im not in dire need, so take care of others first.

AJ, Yes I would love some cedar or pine shafts to make target arrows. I would accept a trade of 10 nice shafts for one of these horns. A set of horns cost me around $400, but with the top curl removed I realize 10 shafts may be fair for one.

PD, I am always making more bighorn bows and will likely always have some when your ready.
