Nice lookin' 'sage there Kerry.

Guys, I got to met Kerry in March at OJAM and did a little horse tradin for some of his staves. I can tell ya it's some good stuff! Kerry's a super guy to deal with too. Wish I could make MOJAM to get some more.

Kerry, have you found any more of that white Osage yet?

Have you heard from anyone that bought some of that white 'sage? Just wondering if anyone has made a bow from it yet. Since I didn't get any of it. :(

JO5H, I ain't never seen any myself till I seen it at OJAM this year.
