thinking there's a nice little snakey bow in there when i get those knots knocked off
down another ring and things shld be shaping up!
but my name has numerous osage bows already
maybe i shld dig out that super reflexed hackberry instead....
is there such a thing as too many osage bows?


looks like that little wind check is showing the way...
feel pretty good about this stave.
nice rings, a bit of character, still over 72" long and a full 2" thick
gives me lots of room to work.
most of the osage i work is marginal at best, so this one is gonna be a pleasure
