Never heard of it, does it have another name, and is it specific to your area?

Ive never heard of it being used as a bow wood, but it may work. By the way, where in LA are you, i didnt think we had that many bowyers around here

I have one in my backyard, I think I am going to limb let it dry and see what happens, worst case, maybe I can use it for tips or accent wood.

Do it! I would imagine any fruit tree wood could be coaxed into a bow.
