A new back quiver and arm guard

(1/1)

Darren Haverstick:







I finished this back quiver and matching arm guard a couple of days ago. They will be donated to the live auction taking place at the United Bowhunters of Missouri Festival the weekend of February 9th-11th in Springfield, MO. Hopefully, they will make the club a little money.

The body of the quiver and the arm guard facing are made from water buffalo hide. The black leather that the arrowheads are made from is stingray hide and the shiny yellow bands are ostrich leg skin. The straps and trim are made from deer hide and I carved the buttons and lace hooks from deer antler. I sewed everything up by hand using approximately 4 miles of artificial sinew. My fingers need a rest now!

No Powder:
Absolutely gorgeous. Did you shoot the buffalo, ostrich, stingray, and deer with antlers with your bow while you we're hunting moose?  :luff: On a more serious note, they should be thankful, and I'm sure they'll make a lot of money on those items. :hairy

Winter Hawk:
The word "awesome" is overused and thus lost a lot of its value, but it truly fits what you make!  I am in awe at your talent.  These are beautiful and should bring in a ton of money for the club.  thanks for showing those to us!
