20+ year old osage haul

Very cool Clint. Please put a paragraph at the bottom of your will that all your bow wood and stuff goes to me.    I'll hire a Josh to haul it to my house.   

Only if you do the same Pat

Somewhere up in Bowyer's heaven there is an old bowyer with a BIG happy smile on his face right now for knowing that the wood he worked to put up so long ago is now finally finding it's proper use and purpose!  The first good bow built from it should be named 'LEGACY'...

Yeah, I think so too.

I think the first bow will be named Bob.  That was the guys name.

Clint you are a lucky dog. That's a cool story.

  I was having the same thought with a smile on my face.

Very cool! I'm sure that gentleman is smiling down at you as your working on that wood. Looking forward to seeing some finished bows from it

Spent all day working on them.  The borers have went pretty deep on some of them.  They only got to the ones that still had the bark on.  He had stripped the bark off of about half of the staves and left the sapwood on.  The borers didn't touch those.

Good deal Osage, I'm glad they didn't ruin such good wood with such an awesome story behind it! Patrick
