It all depends where you live i guess,

Yew is all I have ever used for bows,   between logging and blow downs there is no need to cut a live tree,  the shed is full.

the trading forum is a great place for us all sharing the bounty we have in our part of the land.

you wanna talk expensive,  try getting a nice osage stave in canada.

ravenbeak's right:  you can find decent fallen yew around here pretty easily (and i owe him a  thumb's up for pointing me in the right direction!)...check the trading post...

excellent bow-quality yew has always been rare. Yew seldom grows straight, It's priced accordingly, as is Osage.
