That first one looks like Tonkin to me. The second one doesn't look like Boo. I saw some like that when I was working in LA. and it was real thin.
stringstretcher:
Does tonkin grow in the US?
El Destructo:

recurve shooter:
well whatever it is, after two days after school working on them, i got a hundred and 3 shafts cut and ready to go.
i have a concern with it though. the fat end is 7/16. its kinda big. i cut the nocke end small, but thick enough to make self nocks, and they are i think 11/32, which as small as i could get it where it looked like it would still work. these pieces were 10 or 15 foot long, and they still had that pretty steep taper ???. dont know what they are gunna spine out at, but its as small as i could get it. i told the guys im sending it to if it dont work, let me know and i'll find some actual rivercane.
mullet:
Yea, Phragmite. I couldn't remember the name, thanks, Mike.
