The message board fads don't seem to have an effect on me. I've got a wide variety of bow flavors going at any one time. I use osage a lot, but I think I work a pretty good mix...

Currently working:
Straight osage selfbow
Straight black locust selfbow
Straight hickory selfbow
Recurved osage selfbow
Straight yew selfbow
Yew English longbow 70-75 lb
Bamboo backed osage tri-lam w/considerable d/r
D/r hybrid black cherry limbs and bocote handle (glass bow)
Super snakey osage selfbow w/copperhead skins
Bamboo/osage/horn composite
Not to mention the stack of staves I'm debarking

Hmmm, I better go get to work.

Dang...do any of those got my name on em?  >:D

Jon, once those ticks have had their fill they drop right off, so just leave them alone.  Now get out there.    :)

I wouldn't mind seeing a streak of eastern woodlands style bows on here.    :)

I hope its white wood bows. Most (more than 50%) of the bows I see on here are Osage.
White wood warbows... that would be sweet.
Since I don't have access to osage I am a white wood/ locust guy myself ;) I would like a piece of osage but I just cannot justify paying money for it when I have log truck loads right around my house :)

Hunting season is around the corner--its arrow/shooting/scouting/fitness time.  Bow making starts up in Oct.

Trust me I would LOVE to be in the woods now. The only thing you'll be scouting around here is a way to get the seed ticks outa places the sun will never see :o

My guess is your no nudist archer, sheesh, hope that never becomes a fad.
"SET" is always there !!!
