That osage could produce the most beautiful veneer! For sure nothing boring in that grain!

I'm not sure what you've got there but i have something else to add too. About 10 years ago i found this tooth at my dads place in central north dakota. i don't know of anything that lives around there with a tooth like that. thought it could be an old mountain lion tooth? i drilled the hole for a necklace, wish i could take it back now. thanks, Dan.

The osage looks almost like it has faces in it, like a totem pole. It would make a gnarly self bow for sure, but think about how cool some limb lams would look from it with all that figure.

Did you find any 5 legged frogs?  With deformed trees and bones, I'd keep my eyes open.  Radiation  :scared:

That's bone, but it's a definate deformation, it can be from any animal, maybe it had some sort of bone cancer or something.

BIGFOOT!

Im guessing severely deformed hog's lower jaw. Shot in the jaw, hit by a truck, something to make it heal in such an odd manor.

Man, don't cut that osage.  It has spirits in it  :)

There's stuff that's made to be bows and there's stuff that's made to be trees.  I'm voting tree on this one.
Take a kid hunting!

Gopher - looks like a sharks tooth to me. I've found many like it on the beaches. Could be a very old remenant.
