   I suppose for the sake of clarification what kind of "hunting horn" do 
people see using, The french horn looking one, a cattle horn with a strap or 
some other horn?  I was sick for a few days so I had a mass delete episode 
on my e-mail.

   How about the horn in Or with the sable mullet on the bell over two 
arrows (or a quiver for that matter) in saltaire sable?  I am just grasping 
at ideas here. :)
