-but i have a bunch of pretty wood in my shop that i could use for blanks, so I may go the custom route. Trouble is that i've got a bunch of english walnut, white ash, locust and osage - and that's bow wood...so, you know, competition, lol.

You would cry if you saw my woodshed.
A couple years ago I got in on a commercial clear cutting - where they took a swath of Osage orange 100 meters wide by 700 meter - part of a fence row.90 percent Osage. Trees over 150 years old - and well over a meter in diameter.
There was a time constraint - they wanted us out by a set date. In 6 days I hauled home 12 cords of Osage - for firewood. I still have a few cord left. It's the highest BTU density of any wood East of the Mississippi river - 30,000,000 BTU per cord.
