hunting / fishing priest

[kev.b]

hi i know this isnt a stick or cane but thought this would be the most apt section to post. I was asked to make a "fishing priest" for a friend by his wife. Duly made from Red deer antler and Ash handle with Ash blank end where antler tine was. then pyro'd a jumping Bass. showed it to my mates wife......"why the fish" she asked....well you asked fro a "fishing priest" i said. well he wants it for shooting, pheasant mostly and didnt know what to call it....try hunting priest?
so sanded off fish and then pryo'd pheasant.
hope you like.

(called a "priest" in the UK because it gives the last rites to fish....or pheasants in this case. not sure what they are called in U.S.)

Hey Kev,

Looks pretty cool!.........we call them fish clubs/whakers....and would be a good looking handle for a walking stick too!.........thanks for sharing.
