Well I barely got back from post office sending out my package, when my son text me telling me I got a package. I just had to run home and see. I might need a little help here Dylan. It's a bow stave I'm not sure what type. Almost want to say some type of locust. It's something I haven't tried yet at any rate. It's not real big but looks real nice. Free of knots that I can see. I'm thinking the back of bow will be the reflex side. Also some exotic pieces of wood for tips.
    Thanks Dylan if you could tell us what I got that'd be great. I'm looking forward to trying a new wood.

BJ, if I had to guess I'd say that is the straightest piece of honeysuckle bush I've ever seen.

Some blue feathers, turkey tailfeathers, 4 nice pcs. of flint 2 snowflake obsidian 2 pcs Texas flint. Wood for tip over lays, not sure of kind, also some horn overlay tips. Big ole long hang of primitive cord veg. material. Some B 50,   a pc of silk and a nice long strip of River Birch bark,  pc deer antler and a nice pc 4 oz leather. I am totally blown away. Thanks Dave

Thanks Clint, that's what I was guessing to but I've never really seen them before. I do think I found some of this last fall. Gonna have to look at it again. At a distance I thought it was black locust but when I got close Bark was wrong. If I remember right it was like this.

I got a bundle from Bob Briggs with some neat starter flint 17 various pieces, 10 arrow shafts and one ready to fletch(viburnum, maybe?) and a bundle of deer leg sinew.  Will post a pic as soon as we figure out that process.  Had to stop and get some feathers to fletch the arrow, and will try to wrap the fletch with the sinew!  I'm going to try the eastern 2 fletch style.  Thanks, Bob

That's a nice straight stave. 

And I'm not jealous Bill.  I'm happy the Tree Hugger has some more osage to work with  :)
