Mike, or his Dad, sell osage all over the Southeast. They are at many of the 3D shoots. He will be at the Tenn. Classic, north of Nashville the first weekend of May and at the NC State Champs at the end of May.
   Mike claims he has cut more than 20,000 osage staves over the years. I bought a beautiful stave from his Dad last year and split it down to 3 staves and have made bows from 2 of them.
  Mike frequents PA and goes by the name Yazoo.

Another one for Mike, have bought a few staves from him, real good to work with, and fast service.

Have not bought from Mike, got plenty of my own.  But he as been around a long, long time and I've seen some of his cuttin' first hand.  You could do worse.
