I used to own a Stick made from White Oak. I believe the "new" owner lives in NM.

I would REALLY like SE to continue making osage orange Sticks. Such a great wood.

My first stick was a white oak. I don't know what became of it. I bought it $700 used I think
I sold it for $750 after 2 great years of learning.

Isn't it time Aluminum got added to the list? There are already quite a few Railboards out, and I anticipate that they will continue to be popular, thus meriting their own line in the poll.

Love my Padauk stick. It's got a gorgeous color gradient from light (almost like tarara) to a dark brick red on the other end. Haven't seen any other padauk stick that's been laminated quite like it. If you squint at my av, you can see what I'm talking about.
