I have to deal w/ osage orange out in Pike county, Illinois (bowhunting), If yours is as hard as it is out there (hard as steel). Not sure how that wood would turn, sand, drill, etc.

GooGoo Man, to answer your question--->this is what Drew9745 said on another site, he got the same wood I did, BUT I have NO resorce to CUT an SHAPE.(I recently got a piece of Osage orange from GoBow, boy what a charm to work with this stuff! Turns nice, sands nice, and looks great. The stuff sinks though, so I figured a diving swimmer would be an appropriate first lure to make with it.) here the plug he built. I thougt I saw him at PLUG FEST ? maby he's on this site also, an can answer, he is the only outher I know got the same wood?
