Why use buckskin? Ecsaine is BETTER, more UNIFORM and EASIER to work with...

Not really a good argument in todays world. Human kind has virtually 
eliminated all natural predators of Deer, Elk and the like. Their 
numbers would multiply out of control quite quickly if Bambi'ss moms 
(and Dads) don't get harvested in appropriate numbers.  I use Oglala 
Lakota Sioux Doe skin myself.  Verrrry nice stuff... smooth as a babies 
behind, and durable enough for the life of just about any action out there.
