Well the farmer lied to me then in mid western Oklahoma ...I believe that is Hedge and not Catawba.
I've split and tried them for posts and rails. They are ok, but sure aren't nearly as rot resistant as black locust or cedar.They use a lot of the trees for fence post out west ....ever noticed a straight fence post in a western .... crooked but rot resistance...
Pretty good if it isn't a crooked, knotty piece. I've split literally thousands of locust stakes and rails over the years.How’d that black locust split?
