Source of Osage Staves or Posts-KS, OK or MO
« on: October 19, 2023, 11:30:03 PM »
I live in Wisconsin where Osage staves are pretty tough to find. I know there are “post yards” in KS, MO, and OK, where fence posts are sold. Some market their fence posts as potential bow staves. It seems to me I’ve seen posts on Trad Gang regarding this but my search didn’t show results. Anyone know of such sources? I will be traveling through that area to visit my daughter for Christmas in NM and could easily stop in.
Yours,
Jon

Send me a pm, I have a contact for you in SE Nebraska that haunts post yards and turns good candidates into staves. I was slated to drive down there next week to buy a dozen staves, but vehicle problems just spent all that money and more. *sigh*
