Hello,I have some 10/12 oz.lattigo leather.Can I make ball bags or shoulder bags with it?THanks,squib
 
That's pretty thick leather, but yes, you can make bags with it, as latigo is not as stiff as veg tan would be. If I had enough of it I'd be tempted to make shoes out of it. What color is it?
 
Its black and looks pretty good.Iam looking at everthing I can get my hands on to learn how to make a nice bag.I have made 2 ball bags out of thiner leather,and they were not bad.squib
 
There have been several articles in different books in the Buckskinning series. I think in 2 and 8 there were articles dealing with making shooting pouches. If you can't find either one, try to look at some of the pouches out there and find one that you like. Then just think about how you would put it together. Will you be attaching different items to the shoulder straps? Will you want pockets inside? How many? Will you want it lined? Good luck.
