Essay/Description
A pair of ball sticks in the Creek style common in the 20th century. They are well carved and the holes (around the cup) are burned rather than drilled. The "net" is strung with deerskin that has seems halfway tanned (i.e. half rawhide). the lace used in netting the cup is wrapped around the whole stick at the base of the cup. An additional wrapping is at the place where the shorter bent section concludes against the handle. Below this point the handle is a single solid round piece.
