I drove past a place yesterday where they had pushed over 3/4 mile long fencerow of hedge here in Western Missouri.  Lotsa staves just laying on the ground...

Nice haul.  I was lucky enough to locate a couple dozen osage trees just 20 mins from the house....which is rare here in Oregon.  Now I just have to go knock on the door.

you need lots of osage to pick over only 1 out of a 1000 is good enough for bows,,it takes 1000s of trees to cut these loads,,
