Great bowyer's wood...and great fence posts too!!

You learn something every day on this site...I never saw the term "bowyer" before. Added it to my trivia store.

Yeah...it's obscure knowledge. Ha!!

But I'm a native SOCAL kid....and Ben Hunter was an icon there when I grew up....

Prolly means nothing to most here...but if you are my age..and from SOCAL...you will "get it".

Besides all that......bois-d'arc wood..is a great bowyer's wood!!

Also trivia related...but actually called "bow wood"...probably by Native Americans........

Best FRegards,
