while we're talking about this, someone help me 'name this tree'. Cut some last year, never again 
it's name is basically "hard tree" in French or something. This bitch was tough as hell. Does this ring a bell for anyone?

It has to be a Bois D'arc. Also known as Bodarc, Hedgeapple, Osage Orange or the Horseapple. I have a few in my back yard. The wood is extremely hard and makes great recurve bows. My French is awful but I believe Bois D'arc means bow wood. It also has the highest BTU of any hardwood. Bring extra blades and files if you plan on doing much cutting on them.

We always buy a half cord and always have wood left over as it just doesnt get cold anymore. But we have central air and heat and just burn it old cold nights
