Snakeskins...colors?
« on: December 17, 2008, 10:11:00 AM »
Please post some pictures of different snakeskin covered bows...please include if they're real or a product from someone like onestringer or others that offer this service.

Also if you could please let me know what kind of snakeskins they are and if it was ordered that way or done after.  

I have an older bow that I may want to have skins added to…so let me know some options for having them added.

Thanks,

Josh

P.S. remember the size rule for photos.

Canebreak skins. ( false, 'Skineeze' product) easy to fit. Rub a bit of string wax on to take off the glare, job done.

Hunting was hazardous, but at least it guaranteed the freedom of the individual.

There is no doubt that the onset of farming saw the end of leasure for the majority of people, who were destined to toil in the fields.

Is there a place out there that sells skins?

Wolfkiss...nice looking bow, I wouldn't be able to tell without seeing the bow in person they are a "skinezee" product.  Nice!

That was a single skin and I had a bit left over....so not sure what two smaller skins might look like.

Those look great.  Might be a good project.  Where does one get snakeskins.  I especially like the copperhead and bullsnake.
