Does anyone know how to get onto some Osage orange for a self bow or is that like asking where all the deer hang out. Bit iffy on getting something internationally as the dollar is garbage and I don't trust it.
Cheers

Re: Osage orange
None that I know of up your way mate, most is in NSW that I'm aware of anyway.
I have bought a stave from a bloke on Ebay and its exactly what was pictured and a pretty decent stave, though I agree the dollar is garbage at the moment. My stave ran me $220 to get it over here but arrived in 2 weeks, no hassles. I will see if I can find you the link to his stuff.
Few guys on here might be able to help you out as well. hopefully they'll chime in eventually.

Re: Osage orange
Awesome thanks for the info from both of you. If you could send through the link that would be great.
I will get intouch once I move house and am settled, I can get a price and then suss out the cost of a courier.
Thanks again.
