Hello, I'm looking for a quality stave around 80" long, something capable of 100 at 32. I'm really just curious at the moment, and am not sure when I could buy. I really don't have anything to trade buy money.

Notice: Until further notice we are no longer offering bow staves for sale. This is due to the demand for bow staves for custom order bows and for bow-making classes. That said, it doesnt hurt to call and check on availability.

I have a Yew tree felled and need help getting it out of the woods. I would be willing ot split some of the wood with whoever can help me out. Just send me a message to your availablitity. I have it cut into 8 foot sections, but the base of the tree weighs a ton. It is in a fairly rugged location about a 1/4 mile off the dirt track.
