I have osage staves cut in 2008, but some have borer damage.  So far all I've used have made bows.  If you're willing to try them I'd be interested.  Don't need feathers but the shafts and points would be great.  Sending full length staves requires some creative packaging or UPS adds a $50 oversize package fee.  Billets are much easier to ship.
