mesquite staves
« on: April 17, 2014, 10:13:16 am »
I found some nice mesquite staves. 
I was HECHO EN MEXICO, but assembled in Texas and I'm Texican as the day is long...  Psalm 127:4 As arrows are in the hand of a mighty man; so are children of the youth.

Looks like there's some character bows hiding in there somewhere. Nice stash.

You might have to do a little string alignment..... :o some of those look extreme.  I hope you have lots of patience.  :)

I am giving the staves in the 3rd picture away at the classic.  If you want one and will be there PM me and let me know if you want A, B, C, D, E or F.

4dog there's a bunch of old growth mesquite. I will bring some down to Sommerville for you.

You got it Chris. Yes sir. It's going to be nice meeting you! A & B are taken.

I would love to have one,just anyone no one else wants, I was a middle child and am use to taking what is left over.  ;) ;D ;D ;D Someone ask me why I am always working on nasty/grarly staves, I say cause the guys at TwinOaks have already taken and picked over all the good stuff, I have gotten smarter over the years,now I hide it or write PAPPY on it in big letters. ;) :)

I'm a youngest... so I'm used to hand me downs. So I'll have the one that Pappy has finished with  ;)
It will be great for me to see some of the different woods you guys have over there, and how you use 'em especially the short bow styles.
I've booked my airport parking at this and and got my bow making drainpipe all ready to go :laugh:

That's a really nice stave. Are you sure it's mesquite? It looks like cedar.
