Before you spend the money of an osage stave go to Lowe's or Home Depot and get a good red oak board and learn how to tiller. The red oak is a lot cheaper than an osage stave.
Look in the How To and Build along thread here on TradGang for Jorge Tsoukalas' post on selecting and building a board bow.

WV has hedge and hickory if you ask around you may find someone who would let you harvest a limb or two.
