question about the trading post..

(1/2) > >>

Blacktail:
i really didnt know where to ask this SO if it needs to be moved that is o.k....my question is...do you think its a good trade for some one to ask a 2-1 for bow wood..... even if its billets....just asking....john

vinemaplebows:
Can you explain a bit more? If you are refering to a trade like...osage for yew...good yew sells for up to $200 , osage half that, or less. So, I could see asking for 2 staves if you are thinking on a monetary value system.

Tortoise:
vinemaple hit the nail right on the head, it depends on the quality & value of the staves

Blacktail:
yeah that is my question...i have billets..i don't know if i want to trade right now..i was just wondering if its fair..i was told by a bowyer Friend that 2-1 is what some people trade when it comes to yew...i cant stand the $200 price on yew..it drives me nuts..it just a pain to get some times from the fs..john

beetlebailey1977:
If I had good yew wood and wanted to trade.....I would most likely want 2 staves of lesser wood.
