Title: Did I miss something

Did I miss something or is Black Widow no longer offering snakeskins as an option?


An Osage PLx with copperhead skins was on my wishlist.

Did you talk to them, go to the source and find out for sure.

I spoke with Roger last year and at that time they were no longer offering snakeskins. I don't know if that's changed since.

But if it hasn't, a great option is Jim Neaves at Centaur Archery. He will skin a bow for you, and he does the best skin work I've ever seen. That's what I did, had my PL refinished by Black Widow (part of a weight reduction) and then sent it to Jim for snakeskins. It turned out amazing.

Dang.

That might be what has to happen.

I had Black Widow put rattlesnake skins on my PSA III after getting it repaired and refinished. It turned out amazing.
