Super!!!!!I'm supposing you've made bows out of it before.The map says it's native way down south like Florida etc.Course that same map says osage is only in Texas and Oklahoma too.Think they need to do a little updating there....lol.

From what I've read about these different type of elms I should be going after rock elm.Ulmus thomasii.I'm thinking shagbark and pig nut hickory will do too.
