It had thin rings on a concave back.  It was a pain to chase a ring.
I started out with nothin' and I still got most of it left

Here is a close up picture of a final growth ring.  I'm cleaning up the back of my trade bow.

Locusts is close enough in appearance to help but it hardly ever tears out compared to Osage.

Black locust. Black locust everywhere.
Mollegabets all day long.
Might as well make them short, save some wood to keep warm.

I'm getting the idea of it now. I am still seeing places on my back that are looking like the top of Clints second picture. I can't feel them but it looks like I need to dig further. I will post some pics when I get her close.
