Madcow...those look great....I like the looks of them while they are white, but they look like a flashlight when you're setting in a tree. They look pretty cool when stained with leather dye also.

What about barbed antler or bone forshafts? That would be something neat to see, like from the hupa arrow set from P.A. article Treasures of the Smithsonian a few years ago.

Do pet store bones work okay? As they are boiled before they are shelved I have some apprehension before buying one.

Raw bone has merrow oils in it. This makes it soft. Pet store bones work great. Go for it.
