Looking for some Mountain Ash (Rowan)

[Gus]

Hello Y'all,

I'm on the hunt for some Mountain Ash (Rowan).

1) Hoping to find a Stave or Sapling Stave 66" to 68" that would make a 50ish# @28" bow.

2) Also looking for a dozen shafts 33" to 36" that would spine in the 40's to 50's. (Medicine Arrows)

3) And lastly two or three 36" Shoots that are 1/2" to 5/8" on the big end. These don't have to be terribly straight and could use a little charactor. (Medicine Sticks)

If anyone is willing, the wood doesn't have to be seasoned, sealed would be good.
Be happy to pay for shipping along with Trade Goods.

Thank You,

No offense Gus but American Mountain Ash is not Rowan.  That is European Mountain Ash.  The Mountain Ash we have here is very low density and not really suitable for making bows

No Worries Mr. St Louis... I hear ya on calling it Rowan.
And on its questionable nature as bow wood.

But I still need to lay my hands on some.
So, if anyone has access to Mountain Ash in the U.S. please let me know.
The Trade Offer Stands... mostly for the 30 to 40 inch pieces, a bow stave would be icing on the cake.

It's for my Wife.
She puts up with Plenty of my silliness, so when she asks for some Primitive Gear, I try to come through to her specifications... 

If I could afford to import some from Europe, you can bet I'd do it.

Thanks for Looking!
