I like to make things out of leather as a hobby and I’m struggling with some ideas for archery. There are quivers and arm guards yes, but what about useful tools that you’d want made for target or hunting? I look forward to hearing your suggestions. Thank you in advance. Bout to head off to work so if I don’t respond that’s why. Have a great day.

The 'coolest' thing I've ever made from leather is an old school water bottle.
You basically stitch two identical pieces together around the edge. Soak in water water to soften. Pack the snot out of it with grain. Let it dry somewhere warm. Then melt a load of beeswax and dunk it in. The wax sets rock hard and makes it waterproof. A wooden stopper finishes it off. I love mine :)
