More pictures..SOLVED, it is cherry
« on: November 06, 2002, 06:38:39 pm »
Hi all,

Here are more pictures of the tree on my deer lease.  Could it be Cherry??  I just received a Black Cherry log from a friend in Vermont and the bark between the 2 look very similar.



This is a picture of a broken branch I found.  Thought seeing the wood might help identify.



Close-up of the bark.

Thanks everyone.

OK this may sound a little corny but after you saw the black cherry log you got from your friend go out and cut off a small branch with your pocket kniff and smell it. there are verry few woods that don't have thier owne very unique scent.

it does look like cherry

PS e-mail me a wiff I can smell a cherry for miles 8)

SM, when I was younger, I could smell 'em a long ways off too ;) but, getting back to that picture, yes, I say it is cherry too.
