Title: Lookin for deer leg Bones
Post by: **DONOTDELETE** on January 22, 2007, 04:33:00 PM

Heya

I am looking for a Canadian source of deer leg bones so I can make some arrowheads and combs and the like.

Some of this will be for SCA stuff, some for Paleo arrowheads/atlatl points  and if possible I would like to make some bone nocks for my arrows.

any Canucks got some legs to spare?

I think I have about four to six of them. Fronts and backs. Let me know if you don't find a canadian source.

Ragi,

Deer only or any kind of big game?
If so I will put aside my spring hunt bones for you

Just an idea....anyway you could benefit from contacting a highway dept.? Roak kills happen all year long...I know around here you would be all set.

Here in Sask I just go to the local taxidermy shop and get all the legs I could ever use! I must have de-sinewed about 15 pairs this year alone.I ended up tossing all the leg bones :S.
