I emailed him and got some info.....just looking for straight sticks, sounds like he is willing to pay shipping. I haven't tried to ship anything to him yet but hopefully can get things ironed out to where I can get him some!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HorseHunter Report post Posted January 26, 2022 Any specific type of wood or diameter? I assume he wants natural sticks and can't turn sawn material. I have some 8/4 oak (2") rips I could give if he can turn or draw knife. Came out of a sawmill in GA. @ctafoya if close to you, that would be great. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

1uofacat Report post Posted January 31, 2022 Yucca are by far the best for walking sticks. I have been making them for over 40 years & still use a few of them that are over 30 years old. The issue is finding sticks that are tall, straight, & heavy enough. They are abundant all over Southern AZ. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
