    I'm not sure what it is but I'm not seeing TOH at all. From my experience, not all end wood is the same color. I'm also not seeing mulberry either and it looks too dark for hickory in my opinion. Would love to hear what the one guy thinks it is.

    Yes, no smell o vision on the Internet. That would help. I see the young shag resemblance, but this round is too big for that and would be a shagging by then.

    How long has it been cut?
    Mulberry would be getting darker after a few days

    I am sure it’s not a maple, Birch or Tulip poplar as those are all I have been seeing lately…

    I think we can all agree it’s not Mulberry, at least not like any Mulberry that Ive ever seen.

    If it was yellowish, then turned that color, with those wide growth rings, I'm gonna guess catalpa. Bark on it and mulberry look similar
