Looking for other beginner bowyers in need of staves

I’m gonna be cutting down a lot of trees in the next couple weeks and going to have more wood than I know what to do with. I know how hard it is to find wood especially at the start so if anyone wants some I’m willing to spare a few to other beginners. I’ve got a lot of white mulberry that will be ready soon just need to cut and split. Along with some black walnut, hackberry, and maybe ash, don’t know much much I’ll end up with here so I might not give much of these away. All of them will come with the bark stripped ends sealed with wood glue and backs sealed with shellac.

White mulberry is an exceptional bow wood. No need to chase a ring as I’ll be careful taking the bark off and the wood right under the bark is a perfect back for a bow. There will be minor pin nots and twist though I’ll try to make sure I give out the straighter more knot free pieces.

If you’re at all interested I’m in the Omaha/Lincoln area In Nebraska. Shoot me a message and I’ll let you know what I can do for you.
