Nice arras. LOL - That's probably just a hold over from before she (Di) also got interested in all this archery stuff though, Mickey.

That looks like phragmites communalis. We have it in spots around here, and I saw a big stand of it in Norfolk or VIRGINIA BEACH, CLINTOPHER. It gets plumes on it in the summertime. I have heard that one should avoid the plumed stalks, and go for the plain ones, as they are stronger. I suppose it depends on the weight of your bow. I also believe that the best time to cut it is late summer, early fall. The plants have achieved their maximum growth, and have not begun decaying and getting battered by winter storms.
Sorry to drag Clint W into this, but he seems to be looking for things to slice and impale himself on, and I am a helpful sort.

Terry like osage, hickory, river cane and angry wives a little heat and pressure can make a lot of things "malleable" LOL

Maybe that didn't come out right..they supply the heat and pressure, and we become malleable.
There did I say it right that time Di? Di? Awc'mon hon, I didn't mean anything by it.......
