I always thought it would be cool to use shed antler finds as handles on cabinet doors. I had planned to use them if and when I build.

I've used bucktail, body hair, pheasant feathers, and squirrel tail for tying flies. I never really thought of it as completing the circle, more just me being cheap and using stuff from what I've killed.;)

I like the completing the circle concept now. It makes me feel better about being cheap.:D

I've fletched up arrows with feathers from birds I killed. Haven't used them to hunt as I like bright colored fletch for that. Maybe I will soon though?

I cut a limb at one of my stands and the more I looked at it the more I wanted to make a bow out of it.Think about how that would feel to shoot a deer with it and look down after the shot to see where it was cut from.almost as good as shooting a giraffe
