sage Orange also makes beautiful archery bows. Just had to say that.
The species that flourishes here in middle Tennessee is a wicked chainsaw destroying beast. The Bodark pronounced "Bodock" around here is hated by farmers and land clearers. It burns super hot so it makes great firewood if you can ever get it cut up. Never thought it could be useful for anything other than warmth. Making an archery bow and pipe from it is changing my mind about the dreaded hedge apple as I grew up calling it.No. Orange Osage.
I’m sure there is a thread or two related to this, but I need to start exploring alternatives to bourbon with my nightly smoke. Maybe I’ll give this a try.View attachment 232006
