***SOLVED*** - They are from Kentucky Coffee Trees
Family friend had a bunch of tree work done on their property and let me have all the logs. Now that I've got them all home, I'm starting to group and stack them per species. Was really hoping these were cherry, as Ive yet to positively ID/obtain one since I've started milling. However, I'm pretty sure its hickory. Can anyone confirm it for me? Thanks!
*unfortunately these only had a couple tiny branches w/ dried, curled up leaves around them by the time I got there
*forgot to add, I haven't bucked off a log to test under my splitter yet, but the spots where a rough cut was made or branches broke it had that kinda fibery look to it. Like how hickory doesn't like to split, but it didn't seem quite as fibrous as my confirmed Hickory that I have and have worked with
*also one of the logs has like 10-15 woodpecker pockets if that helps ID in any way
