Looks like it'll work right handed just fine. What are the rivets made of on the arm guard? Sort of look like old buffalo nickels. You killing any deer over that way on your break? With all this snow, I'm going do some stalking the next few days and hopefully put some meat in the freezer. Take care and good work there Derik!

Thanks for the replys guys. The rivets I got @ Moonshine Leather in Nashville, IN, they are sold as conches, but looked more like buttons. Just hammer them together, I used a little superglue to though.
No deer yet Tracy. When we pulled into the drive a bout 15 minutes ago there were three right across the creek from the house. I've kinda decided not to shoot the though, it's a mature doe w/ here yearlings. I've done that the past couple of years and always end up leaving one yearling to fend for it;s self. I'd rather shoot a lone doe or a buck this year, but the time is to the wire now.
Thanks again guys, dpg
