SCORE!!!! We got some Locust once and that stuff was awesome. NO joke... we could burn 4 logs and they would last 24 hours. 2 in the am and 2 in the pm. It was great!
The problem with Locust wood, is it litteraly eats saw blades! Chews them right up. We took down 5 40' Locaust trees, the first one chewed up the blade so bad, that we had to resort to the axe. I dont touch the 70'+ Locusts. To close to the road/wires. I trim the low hanging branches as they get heavy. If I don't the limbs hang so low that they drag on small cars.
The roundpen I built for the horses, is 95% Locust. I think I have enough Locust wood for quite a few summer bon fires!
Sounds like our Hedge (Osage Orange) trees.
