do you think she will BLOW!!!!
« on: February 03, 2012, 06:36:44 pm »
there is about 1/4 to 3/8 inch on the back with some pretty good size knots. I got some goat hide and a bunch of sinew, I am going to use one or the other on this one. It's a spookie stave for sure but I haven't had the pleasure of blowing one up yet     :)

What is it?
Only when the last tree has died and the last river has been poisoned and the last fish has been caught will we realize we cannot eat money.

What you shooting for as far as weight & length. Off hand I would say go with the rawhide.
Bowmakers are a little bent, but knappers are just plain flaky.

I would still go with rawhide. Goat is thin and light, should be good protection for the back.

I have a ERC stave that I have been working off and on......interested to see how yours turns out.  I plan to use rawhide on mine.
Happy hunting to all!
