Would anyone know of any instructional material or web sites that may offer some basic info on moose or deer antler carving.
Thx

The only Book that I have read is by Bill Matz, info@matzsculptures.com you might look at his web site or check one of the carving suppliers that carry his book, can't remember the name of the book, I lent it to friend of mine and haven't got it back yet.
Hope this helps.

you probably need to talk to Cathy Krumei (Krum) on here, she has done a lot of antler carving. Not sure who else has ....wear a mask!! that I know for sure lol

Bill's book is "Carving In Moose Antlers", can be purchased through his website

www.matzsculptures.com

and is an excellent book on the subject. I don't think I have ever seen another book with photos that detail every step in the process. You don't see step 3 then 6 and have to imagine what happened in 4 and 5. Don't remember the price but it was under $20.

Bill also has an article coming out with us in the Spring Issue.

Thanks Folks, really appreciate all the info. What a great forum. I'll be contacting you for some more info. if you don't mind. I'm may have some smaller Moose antlers to share if anyone needs one or two. Not much snow here in the Highlands & sheds are easy to spot.
thx alot.

Hi Cathy: Thanks for the reply. I'm going to order a book from Bill Matz on antler carving. But books i find can only take me so far. So i will probably hit you up for some pointers.
Many Thanks
