Nice work!  Now, your daughter is going to want to make her own bow!  Start 'em young!  Good to hear you got an id on the stave.

Our Service Berry(Saskatoon) is twisted too. Pipe straight but twisted, like Hazel. We just saw it straight. Seems to hold together.

Nice work. I like how it took the stain.  In central Washington I've scoured the sagebrush step and only found a few likely bow staves.  I have one 8 inch x 7 foot piece drying and would love any tips.
