So I have a lot of this vine that I thought was muscadine running along my fence which I left behind when I cleaned out the fence row. Now later in the season I can tell it's not muscadine due to the lighter colorer leaves and fruit not growing bigger than buck shot. Any ideas of what it is. Some of the vines are a couple of inches in diameter.

Can't tell much from the small pics on my phone, but it still may be a vine in the grape(muscadine) genus Vitis. The leaves look right.

I'll take another shot the next time I'm out there but this is indeed a vine (some stretch 20ft). Mulberry/ beauty berry appears to be a shrub.

nope, its not beauty berry. thats a bush/plant, not a vine. deer or hogs wont touch beauty berry. poke weed looks somewhat similar to beauty berry and deer LOVE it.

Just wipe your butt with the leaves and eat some of the berries.

Question answered.
