What length ya looking for?  I have some laying around that I can look through.  A few had some bug damage occur right after I debarked so I need to make sure I have a clean piece.  Are you planning on reducing sapwood at all?  If so I might be able to clean up some of the bug bored stuff as long as they didn't go to deep.

I wasn't planning on reducing sapwood. I have a bow I made 64" ntn mostly sapwood.  It shoots real nice I wanted to make another with flipped tips. So looking for about 68".

Hey, I have one piece without bug damage to it.  It's not a premium piece but believe it has a bow in it.





Sapwood is a little grayish due to curing in an old low lit garage I think.  I thought I had some better stuff than this piece but the little buggers got into my stash more than I thought.  Let me know if you'd be interested in it.
