Is there any use for this in bow building? I just had one fall in my yard?

Mountain ash(Roan) makes a very good bow. Check the wood well to be sure it isn't diseased. Why did it fall?

It was a leaner and the wind broke it off at ground level. So if there is anyone in MI that wants this tree give me a shout. it is free I am going to cut it up this weekend.
