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

This is getting X-Files! What in the world is that?

BowDoc that is an interesting bone as well, we could make a very unusual skeleton!

Did anyone else see the face in the osage tree?

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.

I see the face! right at the top of the pic, and another right below it looking to the right

Looks like "Elvis".

You mean this face

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

Any unsolved missing persons reports in the area? Cool tooth!

Return to area 51, Earthman.

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.

Mine is the right shoulder socket of an old bowhunter who was pulling to much draw weight..
OK just kidding I found it in the Cascades Mtns.my buddy is a vet and checked it out for me.Mine is an elk hip socket that must have been damaged when it was a youngster.That is all calcium built up around that socket and point of the hip bone showing in the pic...cool stuff.bd

Dennis it seems you always find something cool whenever you take a walk in the woods.Cool find.

John Scifres · February 12, 2009, 09:51:00 AM

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.

Tim Finley · February 12, 2009, 10:45:00 AM

Beaver skull????

IndianaBowman · February 12, 2009, 03:25:00 PM

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