bobcat hide/skunk hides
« on: January 06, 2011, 01:06:42 pm »
I have a scraped,dried,salted bobcat hide this is not the actual pic,but represenative, looking for a basic self bow 40#-50#
I also have a few skunk hides these pics are some I traded last year, may have more as season goes along.Open for ideas on skunks.

Would love a Bobcat hide,... working on a selfbow right now (but for myself!)
Interested in workable staves by chance?  If so, what type of wood?
Just thinking,... throwing ideas around.
