If you want to do something in a good way, donate a beef to a powwow committee...feed the people. Use the hide from that beef for your drum.

Why are y'all so intent on making a drum using buffalohide? 99.5% of the drums made in OK in the last 100+ years were/are made from cowhide. The other .5% are horse hide.

Another option is to go to OK and contract with a drum maker...Wyley Littlecreek and Dewey Crane come to mind....you'll get an excellent drum.Leave a comment:

If you look at a lot of the southern drums, they have some type of colorful strip around the rim of the drum. Can you tell me what this is and what its purpose is...I would imagine it is to add additional protection to the hide from wear and tear from the drum sticks...but does anybody know what it...12-12-2007, 01:13 PM -
This may seem like an offbeat question, but here goes. I was noticing the other day while sitting in with some guys singing that the drum head had a couple of areas where the hide (buffalo I think) was looking like it had some spidery surface cracks. When I ran my hand over it, I could feel some of...02-13-2007, 06:22 PM -
