Horn Joint

Thanks for all the comments and info guys. Do any of you have photos of butts and joints of finished cues using horn.

My Chuck Starkey (desi2960) cue with Kingwood and Elk throughout...

I have a couple of Chuck Starkey's cues with the Moose horn joint. really crisp hit, my all time favorite!
 
Iam ready to have a new cue built. Nothing over the top four point, Irish linen wrap just a nice solid player. My question have any of you guys owned or played with a horn jointed cue? What are your opinions on this material? I have a large piece of Axis deer horn that would work.
I was going to just do phenolic but have been kicking around this idea.

deer horn i haven't had good luck with. Elk antler however has been very good to me though...
 
Horn and antler are two different materials, antler is bone and horn is mainly keratin.
 
Great pics guys thanks for posting. I think I might do this joint on my cue I will post pics when I get it. Damn I hate the wait for a new cue.
