Hickory stave or fire wood

That kind of stuff happens working with staves. I can’t tell you how many staves I’ve started working on with a certain bow in mind to build and have to end up building something totally different because of something going on inside the wood that can’t be seen until it’s discovered during the process. What part of NW Arkansas you located in? There’s Osage Orange(bodark) everywhere in your area. I have family in Farmington, Elkins, and Cave Springs. I have an Osage log stashed at my uncles house in cave springs that I cut over 15 years ago that you can have if you’re interested.

Oh boy. Next time don't draw a straight line but follow the vertical or lateral grain. Like this:

OK, that makes sense. How did I miss this info the first time? Thanks George.
