« on: March 01, 2011, 12:21:30 am »
I got a friend nagging the paint off the walls for a straight limbed osage bow. :o    anyone have a decently straight osage stave they would part with. pretty clean and straight and cured ofcourse...just let me know how many arms and legs its going cost me..lol   i have some  boo strips and an ipe board and a rough cut osage board as well that would need planed down before glue up.  could also trade a stone knife and\or points   whatever....  just kinda need one to get this Dax shaped thorn outa my side..lol

 If you have to pull the trigger, is it really archery?

I'm glad this post was started looking for a straight something or other.  Never know what's going to be asked for by a sangria drinkin', body shavin', long hair like yourself, twistedlimbs.  And by the way, this top water plug's got sharp hooks.  Lol.  All in good fun.

Bowmakers are a little bent, but knappers are just plain flaky.

Hey Twisted..
Did you see KerryB's post about Osage. I know from experience that he has some fine stuff and is a GREAT Guy.

(Don't know about shaving though as that seems important to you guys)  >:D
