That little pinhole in the center of the cutside tells me it is Ash that looks a bit punky.

And the bark is screaming ash.

+3 Ash

Ash would be good news! How are you guys distinguishing the bark for ash vs. tulip?

Deep sharp narrow furrows.

I was seeing the row of holes where the EAB tunneled in. 1/3 from left in the 1st pic.

BB hole in the center is a dead giveaway

I find it very hard to tell the difference on the big Tulip poplars.....what's the diameter of the log in the second picture? Reason I ask the growth rings look a little large for ash....I kinda see the BB hole.....when you split it you will know, bluish/purplish heartwood means Tulip poplar.

About 24" diameter in that pic. I did some splitting but didn't notice any unusual coloring, maybe I need to take another peek when it's light out.

The tree has been down for a few years, but it's free so I've got nothing to lose but time. The splits look solid to me, so I'll prob continue to harvest it
