Use your stick to overturn leaves on the trail, as support for a weaker leg, for balance while going up and down hills, or as a decoration piece in your home. These functional pieces of art make the perfect gift for that “hard to buy for” person in your family or life. Wood types used are woods grown from the Ozarks such as hickory, and elm. The wood chosen for shipping depends on the type available at the point of purchase.
