hey dutch,
my osage is from a bowyer from bavaria. i dont know where he get it (and he keeps his secret), but he has alot of outstanding osage. he got super staves, snakys, boards. also he got alot of yew, hickory, elm, locust etc. when i was at him, i felt like in paradise.
the osage on the pic is a 2nd choice stave, cause another bowstave was cut from it. i paid 60€. i had to pull 6 rings down for bows back.
