I wouldn't eat it if it got sick and died, but I would like to see the picks of the skins after your done with them. I bet you could cover several bows with skins that large?

I don't think they will look good on bows, too wide and you will lose any pattern, but I bet they would make a wild looking quiver cover.

when i skin a snake, i use a hook blade. the kind you put in a utility knife to cut shingles with. it cuts right through the belly scales. if you have a knife with a guthook that would work too.. lay the skin on a board and use pushpins to hold it down, it takes about a week to dry
