It’s Big!

This will make lots of bbq.
This old yard Hickory will probably be tough to split but will fill up some racks.

 

That looks like a building you don't want wearing a tree. Good luck!

 

Decent tree for a yard one. Not a lot of knots. Do you get a lot of hickory? Sell a lot of smoker wood?

 

I get a decent amount. Another big one was removed from this place last year and another guy took it. I think the splitting difficulty broke him of his desire for more. Occasional sales for smoking wood.

 

Nice stonework!

 

That roof looks very expensive as well.

 

Being a trades person I was admiring it too. I used to fix slate roofs years back. Trade all in itself.

Hickory is 100% worth the stringy hassle IMO.

 

Wow... Didn't realize you were MC Royalty my friend!!

 

Not elm though!

 

Just the yard boy.

 

That's neat!

 

Hard wood

 

Nice grab and awesome score!!

 

I adore hickory; great firewood for warmth and for smoking meat. I don't get a ton of it but treasure what I do get, usually mockernut and pignut hickory (which looks like what that one is). Nice score. Very high in BTUs as well, I think 27m-28m BTUs per cord, more than most oaks.

 

It's true, size matters!

Plan to burn some this season. What little I have will be prime after 4 years in the stacks.

 

Did someone forget to feed the hamsters again?

It’s big #2 Willow Oak

 

I think they are trying to strike!

That is a biggun...!

 

Awesome tree! Quercus phellos, one of the red oaks. Should put out a nice 24mBTUs per cord in a couple years.
