Perfect examples Brian!
I had a beautiful stock at one time with amazing fiddleback curl but it has gone down the road to better things than sitting in my gun room. We'll see it again soon I hope.
In forty-five years of cutting and splitting firewood I have seen some incredible fiddleback, feather-crotch, burl and other variations in all species of hardwoods.
