Boyers love Pacific Yew. I saw lots of it in slash piles from clear cuts in Oregon in the 1970s and 80s, whole trees. Madrone as well.
I still have some Madrone longrifle blanks I had cut back in the 80s. Sorta like fruit wood. Short grained, pink colored and very plain. I made a few longrifle stocks from it and stained them dark.
