Snake skins on your bow

[joevan125]

Im having a couple of bows being made and im having snake skins put on them. I would really like to see some of your skined bows or maybe tell me what looks good. These are the first custom bows i have ever had made.

Wanted copperheads but they are hard to come by.

Joe,
    Do a thread search for snake skinned bows. You should find quite a few pics.
Here is a set of Diamondbacks I just finished up on my wifes bow.

Here is a Schafer Silvertip I had Morrison put a pair of Cottonmouth skins on. Copperhead use to be my favorite.... till these.

JD of whisperstik bows has a set of copper heads on his personal osage recurve. im not one for skins but that bow looks awesome.  mail him for some pics or i will see if i can get a hold of him to post

I am also a fan of Copperhead skins, although I have seen some Bull snakes that turned out very well.  I'd love to have a bow done with a red King snake. Below is a Morrison with Copperheads and the King snake I mentioned.

I just found a website that sells exotic skins, i wonder if python skins on a bow would look good.

J.D. Berry used to use a lot of Boa and Python, pretty cool but I like Prairie Rattler the best. I'll see if I can find pics of the Shawnee I put Prairies on.

I'm with everybody else Ben. Can't wait to see those rock viper skins.

I saw a bow the other day that was skinned with Texas rat snake. If you haven't seen a Texas rat snake look for a pic and check em out. NICE!
