Canebrake Skins

[goldflinger]

Hey Guys, are these Timber Rattler skins? thanks for your two cents!
   

   

[WidowEater]

Yep

Are they Morrison limbs?  I have seen lots of Morrison bows with Canebrake skins and I love them dearly.

[YORNOC]

yes, look like the skins I used to get from Georgia

[goldflinger]

Thanks guys, yes, they are Morrison limbs. They were represented as Canebrake, but someone recently mentioned he did not think they were. Just wanted to get some opinions! Appreciate it.

[Oliverstacy]

And they're awesome looking!

Bob,knows how to put skins on the limbs!

Canebrake is a subspecies of Timber Rattler. Dorsal line is one of the indicators for Canebrake, so I would say they are Canebrake.

Yep Canebrakes, here are mine.

 

[awbowman]

Yep, canebrake or timber rattler, depending on where they come from

Don't bring those to Texas!! A warden will take your bow and leave you with a big fat ticket!

[Preston Lay]

I see them around Stillwater, especially NW near Maramec.

ChrisM,
 You can have them in Texas legally. Just have a reciept showing an origin from somewhere other then Texas.
 Reference page 27 TX hunting and fishing reg's..

That is good to know if I ever head south, but I didn't get a receipt from the classifieds. No idea where the skins originated from :-) Guess I'll just stay North of the Red River.

goldflinger,
 Canebreaks and / or Timbers are a listed species in many states. You should get some sort of paperwork showing a legal point of collection and origin.

sweet!  nothing like rattler skins on limbs.  nice photos. I have put them on one long bow I built.  Turned out beautifully.

Aren't you innocent until proven guilty? Let them prove you got them from Texas!

I like the way you think, but what a hassle the time and travel would be to go back for that court date to present your defense. Note to self, "take your whip if you ever hunt in Texas"
