Banded day horn
« on: December 24, 2014, 06:52:00 PM »
Recently finished this horn with the exchange in mind. It is in the style of the s.VA,NC banded horn. A simple black walnut butt plug was pinned in place with Osage and mesquite thorns,as was the applied antler tip.
As always,question,comments and concerns welcome.
