That would be a good (airy) game bag. Nice looking and very practical. Thanks for showing...might give someone else an idea.

Thanks. Twined bags, whether open or closed-woven, were used by just about every nationality worldwide. Some were even made from rawhide. I read that a few Seminoles left I.T. and went to a post on the Red River in Texas to get a load of whisky in which they packed in "netted bags of rawhide".

Great looking bag and I agree with Ken it brings in some different ideas. Plenty of items would benefit from being carried in this sort of bag.

Here's a Creek Indian closed woven bag collected in 1856, AMNH.

That Creek bag is strikingly beautiful and show cases their skills. The net bag really will make a nice game bag.
