Lets see some snakeskin bows...
« on: January 25, 2009, 12:27:00 AM »
I want to see some bows with snakeskins...Canebrake, Copperhead, Prairie rattlers, Bull snakes and anything else you've got.

Recurves or Longbows doesn't matteer...selfbows, takedowns doesn't matter!!!

Let's see them.

My Shawnee with two sets of limbs.  The curve has canebrakes and the Dakota has Broad-Banded Watersnakes.

Wow thanks all...so many examples.  I like them all, and the Broad-Banded Watersnake are cool.

I don't know which are my favorite but the Copperheads and Canebrake are on the top.

do a search and see if you could find the cobra skins.  They are just black, but look really good...Mike

Man, these are some beautiful bows! But, was wondering if skinning the limbs does anything for them or is this just for decoration? I was thinking of skinning one of my longbows.
