Red osier dogwood.
« on: October 29, 2019, 11:25:32 am »
Anyone have some thicker shoots of this stuff? Looking to try and make some arrows for a plains style bow and I can’t find any In kentucky. Let me know what you’re looking for as far as trades

I have sourwood shoots and maybe some red osier. I don't need anything. What do you have to offer.

How thick?  I have some that may be up to 7/16-1/2", I think.

I have some antelope back sinew. I’m using the elk sinew for a few other projects. I don’t have much else. I have some green cane that I cut here in kentucky at a paintball field. I can try looking for some hazel. I also have a stave of red elm that’s been drying for a bit. It’s large enough to maybe get two bows from it. If you send me your phone number over PM I can send pictures of it all when I get home this evening around 6:30-7:00 est.

I’m looking for some in the 60-65 lb range for spine and then 50-55 or so for a sheep horn bow in making.
