Slide of the Month Extra: Philmont Lady Bull


November 2023

Time to make: 2 hours

Finishing: 1 hour

Original design:  Philmont/Bill Macfarlane




The Lady Bull patch, discontinued in the 1980's, was for female advisors who completed a trek at Philmont. Like the Black Bull, the Lady Bull was to be sown on the red wool leaders jacket. If the tail was placed over the shoulder the leader wearing the jacket had hiked the Tooth of Time or Mt Baldy.

Well I had done the Black Bull, so why not do a piece of Philmont history with the Lady Bull. Carved from pallet pine, painted with hobby paints, and sealed with a couple coats of poly.
