Thank you very much for the compliments guys and gal!
I wasn't sure how it would look with 3 different species on the same bow, but I do like the way it turned out myself. These were all road kill snakes found in front of my house so far this spring. Reuse, recycle, waste not want not, I use what the Lord gives me and try to make something nice from it.
Don't be afraid to try it Nimrod, it's not that difficult just very time consuming. I'd bet you all have some other snakes out there in NH besides just garter snakes? If you have garters then you have brown snakes too I'm sure, and those have very nice natural camoflage markings. The 2 on each side of the middle skin that's on the handle are brown snakes.
