If you live in hunting country, you can probably get a hunter to give you a raw deer or elk hide for free to make your own rawhide, or perhaps someone who butchers just a few animals for personal use will give you a cow, goat or pig hide at butchering time. Many hunters and small time meat producers have no use for the hides, and will be glad to get rid of them.
Domestic sheep and goat hides can be used for drum heads, but will produce a very thin skin and are easy to tear. They also wear out faster and produce a very high pitched drum.
Pig is extremely thick, much more difficult to work with, and harder to dehair but works well where extra strength is needed and can be substituted for moose or buffalo for moccasin soles and works well for heavy pack bags.
Note: A little tip I've found helpful in working with wet rawhide to hold a wrap in place until it dries is to use a little super glue. You all know how well that will glue your fingers together. After all, rawhide is really just skin that has been dehaired.
