Mystery Wood 2

<< < (9/15) > >>

Pat B:
So Bob, I guess that is Okeechobee Orange! ;D( like Osage Orange  ::))   I'm in for your monthly mystery wood. Is this just for bow wood or any wood that is primitive archery related?
  My next guess was gonna be the specific citrus fruits. ;)    Pat

How about you send me a stave from each type and see if I can tell the difference.  ::)  I know the difference, I just didn't guess citrus.  Now if Bob had said right family but be more specific, my first guess would have been Citrus aurantium also know as sour orange.  ;) :-*  At least that is my story and I'm sticking to it.  :D Justin
