andrie- was just gonna mention white stinkwood, but then saw your signature. might also try some of the pecan nut orchards/growers, they often thin/ prune trees.

of course all the fruit trees.
i believe they were growing some osage down there too- it was being sold as hedges to keep the bad ou's out. believe there was a nursery around P.e. selling it- will ask my mum again!

my grandpa used a tree called a "vier hoek"
had 4 berries in cluster, and lotsa thorns- know that wont help much!!- but it was pretty good selfbow wood.
g'luck

Good to see you posting again. still haven't forgotten your earlier proposal about bows, but going through a rough period at the moment financially. Had big expenses on my van, blew up a new compound [yeah I know!] and orders drying up as we get closer to xmas.
