This is a primitive game bag or haversack. The body of the bag is made from pillow ticking and lined with linen, and closes with hemp cord and river cane bands. The flap is made from the rump and tail of an alum-tanned raccoon hide. It is worn with a pig hide belt loop.

Rifle & Accoutrements
40 cal rifle by Roy & Tom Stroh, powder horn by Jeff Bottiger, primer horn by Harris Maupin, turkey bone powder measure by Steve Skillman, knife by Brian Anderson; everything else by me except the wingbone turkey call. Buckeye for good luck from my friends in Missouri, the Fennewalds.
