Who here has experience with willows?.Do y'all think that's a good specimen for bonsai?

It is not.

They grow too fast. They do not heal over cuts well, they drop branches randomly.

For good quality bonsai, it is a dificult species.

Yeah i got some willow plants and im planning to turn them into a bonsai,but it's better to try than not to try right?

Why not? I have a few cuttings myself. I have to agree with Leatherback though - easy to propagate and easy to grow, but not very easy to train as bonsai. Making it look like a (weeping) willow is an extra challenge. Still, there are some that get reasonable results (but I can't remember ever having seen a great one. Just nice, but not great. And it will probably not look good most of the time; it'll require lots of work to make it presentable).

They do exist, but are very rare, as Auk indicated..

ive had three very hard to grow. also very pron to fungus. lost 2 of 3 due to fungus. still have the third one, grows almost 1 foot a month. styled it one spring then one whole side died by fall. its defiantly a challenge.

I don't think my willows will die easily,as New Zealand winter is very mild.Anyways are these any other styles that i can do for it?

As seen by me in Nagahama, Japan:

Not a willow, is it? Never seenn a willow with anything else then obscure white/green flowers

I do not understand why willow would die in a mild winter. Certainly not if you gotthe cuttings there. I would however recommend not even starting, and working with a species that is more suited. Working on a specific plant or species just "because it is available" makes for long roads to mediocre trees. Spend your time and energy on plants that are better suited and on the long run have more satisfaction, I would say.

The flowers on the tree looks like the ones I have on my prunus triloba, I would guess it is some kind of prunus not a willow, just styled like one Clicio.
