DanaM:
So no comment or what? :-\

duffontap:
Dana,

Maybe you should post the same question under 'Bows.'  What is the density like?  Can you get good staves or just billets?

DanaM:
JD Next time I'm over that way I will stop and cut a piece, also will try fer a positive ID. If I remember right
I should be able to get 3" to maybe 5" dia staves, but its been like 30 years since I've stomped thru it.

Jesse:
Buckthorn ! If buckthorn works for bows Wisconsin is full of the stuff. And someone is making a bow with crab apple also.We have lots of that but ive never seen a straight piece of crab around here.  I wish pople or black ash made good bows. Got plenty of that. I will watch and see how this buckthorn thing turns out. The nice thing is nobody wants the stuff and people pay to get rid of it.
