Definitely getting to be quite the list for a winner to choose from. Some very generous offers from a lot of very fine folks.

Wow, this is quite a selection!  Here's my humble offering:  A set of pronghorn rawhide backing strips.  Each is 2" x 38".  Pronghorn hide is very thin and easy to work with, almost transparent when dry.


There is NO better rawhide for bow backing, period, end of conversation. This stuff is no thicker than a good quality business card and a grown man cannot snap a quarter inch wide thong made of it.
Guns have triggers. Bicycles have wheels. Trees and bows have wooden limbs.

Guess they have to have tough hide to deal with the aerodynamic heating from the high mach numbers.   ;D
