Absolutely. I've always preferred heavier picks (the light ones just feel to squishy against the strings for me). I finally gave up on find "my" pick, so I made my own out of bull horn. Smooth as ice and hard as a rock. Perfect. The trick is finding a horn that's not completely round so it easy to make a flat pick.
