Red stag quiver
« on: February 23, 2015, 08:35:31 pm »
Back in October I had the good fortune to take a red stag which wandered off some game preserve and underneath the wrong guy's treestand.;)  My good friend Robbie Limerick made me a fine quiver from part of the skin.  Here is a picture of his good workmanship.  He acorn tanned the skin which left the skin a deep chestnut brown.  I am glad he left the hair side out.  The reddish tint and dark guard hairs from the hindquarters will always remind me of that hunt.  Thanks again Robbie.

Nice quiver, too.  Good work, making the best use of that critter up!

Yeah, and likely a lot of laps around the dinner table, as well!

That hide has some nice color, good job on the quiver Robbie. The Alabama woods is a mysterious place. :)
