When do you plan on leaving stuff out next?
The only man who never makes a mistake, is the man who never does anything!!
The further one goes into the wilderness, the greater the attraction of its lonely freedom.

how about the next time you leave out a bear hide?

I have a smaller bear hide and skull inside my freezer from 2000. Would someone still be interested in it?

From 2000?  Daing I'd hate to see what kinda freezer burn is on that sucker, lol. 

@RCHER, any one can give you any part of a bear they want.  The law just says you can't buy, sell, or trade.  :)

No worries coho, thanks for the offer. I appreciate all the offers folks.

A couple of you asked for pics. Here are a few. I need to take a few more. I can't find pics of a large spear I did for my dad with several claws. But this will give an idea.

Quite different than I thought, I was thinking something simple with a leather necklace threaded threw it.  Wow pretty elaborate and really nice for certain.  That is made from a black bear claw????  I guess I would have thought a bone or something and not a claw.... I hope it didn't sound like I was pulling my claws out cause of the notion of not being able to make one for me.  It was all about the trade or exchange for services and the illegal part I didn't want anything to deal with.  I will still give you a bag a claws with no strings attached is what I meant to state.

Thanks coho. Yeah, due to my lame photography skills, you can't see the claws. I usually just add them as beads onto the lanyard. Or hang them off braided horse tail hair...

The turkey calls are from the wing bones of wild turkeys. There is also deer antler rings,    sinew, and deer rawhide added for
