I've hunt in Weippe where they are slashing the timber, chippen it up and sending it to China. There was allot of Yew that got killed by that operation. I saw tons of the stuff laying on the ground. Such a waste!! The picture was in the northern part on the Montana border and there were pockets of Yew there also.
Inspiration, information and instruction by the ton and it's free,,, such a deal :)

coaster i think that's a great idea building two bows, remember to consider the anchor point in the pics of Ishi, probablly only about 25", im excited to see what you come up with, Bub
