[QUOTE="Arnold Ziffle, post: 34264, member: 43"] Quite a few years ago I got the hair-brained idea that it would be a good hobby to carve duck decoys out of a variety of different woods that had interesting colors or grain patterns. I got my hands on some logs and cut and seasoned some pecan, persimmon, oak, mesquite and bodock. They were all exceedingly hard to carve, but I think trying to carve rock or steel wouldn't be much harder than carving on seasoned bodock. I rather quickly abandoned duck decoy carving as a hobby. But even now I still fancy the idea of making a bow out of bodock (Osage Orange) they way the Indians did. [/QUOTE]
