I went and done some wood cutting at a wood landing today and bucked up some nice rounds. I want to think it hickory but I really not 100% sure here is some pics. It was to nice to pass up.
I will in the morning. Probably should of done that I apologize. It was a hard cutting tree. I believe it’s some kind of hardwood
I was gonna suggest cottonwood but then he said it was hard to cut. So probably not, unless he runs stihls, then it still could be cottonwood.
Like nothing I've seen around here. Don't see hickory, but maybe persimmon based on the bark? An educated guess here.
Def not hickory but nothing I've really seen before. A Google of Sourwood certainly looks pretty close.
What’s the diameter of that round? That would be really big for Sourwood, but I have seen some big ones in the mountains. I like it for firewood. It’s a quick starter wood.
Good morning friends, thanks for all the responses. The rounds on average are about 15 to 13 inches round. I split one this morning for you to have a better look. We do have sourwood where I live but have never harvested any. Its spilts good with the Fiskars x-27. I appreciate your guys input.
Google shutter (or lense, or whatever it's called) came up with Black Walnut (twice) and Maple (once). FWIW, my firewood id skills are level: beginner.
That's persimmon. I cut some persimmon but not too often. I have some in my front yard. They’re a good hardwood for firewood. The deer love to eat the fruit. They are a nasty tree if they are near the driveway or a walking path, you don’t want to park your car under one in the fall. Lots of little squishy fruits, attract flies when they rot, lots of wildlife. A persimmon tree is considered either male or female, meaning only female persimmon trees produce fruit, while male trees only produce pollen needed to pollinate the fruit.
