High quality hickory stave wanted
JW_Halverson:
I got a cop nagging me to teach him how to build a bow. The guy has crazy woodworking skills along the lines of the carvings that Ruddy Darter has been taunting us with. I have no doubt his first will exceed my latest but I still wanna use hickory due to it's indestructibility and love of low humidity climates. I also don't wanna have him worry about pin knots and character grain that is in so much osage these days, though Lord knows this guy will prolly cut a swath thru osage country when he gets his wheels turning!!!
He says he has been talking with other fellow boys in blue and about a dozen wanna make bows too, so this might get out of hand fast!
LOL, anyone got a stash of pipe straight hickory they wanna work a deal over?
sleek:
Gotcha covered jw.
mullet:
Wow, JW, you can start your very own blue tribe.
sleek:
I think about half this is hickory the other half is elm. I can dig through it better if you are interested.
BowEd:
