Well, after many long hours and sore fingers, I finally finished my donation to the United Bowhunters of Missouri Festival live auction. This year's offering is a back quiver and matching arm guard. The maroon leather is bull hide and the golden leather is cape buffalo. The light trim and bling are deer hide. I burned the shapes onto the leather with a wood burning tool. I carved the lace hooks and buttons from deer antler and sewed everything up by hand using artificial sinew. If you want to bid on these items, come join us Saturday, February 10th, at the Oasis Hotel & Convention Center in Springfield, MO. You'll meet some fine folks and spend the day talking about bowhunting. How can you beat that?

Awesome ! :thumbsup:
When I first looked at the stick figure on the arm guard I thought"Why is the man riding on the deer backwards"? Then I looked again and can see he is kneeling and giving Thanks to His Creator ! Very nice ;)
Thank you, everyone! Hopefully, these items will make the club a little money.
