I see this osage fence post every day as it is directly across the road from my driveway. I asked my neighbor if i could have it as long as i replaced it. He said sure....... Just drive a t post in its place. Anyway i just wondered if any of you think it could be worth my time to get it?

I sure would like to give it a try! 8) You won't know til you try. ;)
-
That will have the wildest grain in it. I have one similar that I am going to start on one of these days when I get myslef primed for it. Good luck. Go for it. Dean
-
Yeah I say go for it. Its already been cut so whats it gonna hurt to give it a shot.
-
I'll buy the "T" post and pay the shipping if you send me half! ;D
-
Woha~~~~~~ interesting piece indeed, not sure what kind of stave you'll get out of it or what kind of bow but I guess anything is worth a try.
-
Soon as i decide to take a break from hunting (im off work till the 30th) i grab it.
Pat, if there is enough good wood for 2 i will send ya half. Heck if i decide i aint up to the chalenge i might send tha whole thing. I just cant stand drooling over any longer. My neighbor thought i was crazy before i asked him for it. Now he KNOWS im crazy. ;D

Don't be surprised if it goes missing >:D
-
Maybe i should walk his fence line to see if i can find its sisters?
Don't be surprised if it goes missing >:D
Now if DOES come up missing i'll know where to look. ;)
-
Sure get it and you may be surprised what you get.
-
What did you say the gps heading is? >:D I am surprised you had to ask. I would have found a broom handle or anything for a replacement post :o >:D
-
It's too bad that this is a family oriented forum or I would tell you what I really thought :o >:D
There os no way i could sleep in fear someone else may get it.....blackhawk, cough, cough, cough.... not mentioning any names >:D
-
I dont even understand why this is even a question?! I would take that and leave a track of drool all the way to my house. Please take it along with lots of pictures.
-
Woah, I bet you it would of definitely been worth harvesting when it was alive.
-
By all means take it....and make sure to document all steps in the process;-). I know I dont need to say this....but find a good replacement post and make sure your neighbor feels he wins out on the trade too;-). Good neighbors are gold:-).
Cheers
