Is it hard or soft? Basswood?
 
It is persimmon, I have quite a few on my property.
 
Thanks. I cut some of this last year. A friend said it might be Persimmon. Some of deepest bark I've ever seen. They don't seem to get very big diameter wise. Got 2 of them today. Filled my truck. Filled my trailer with the Hickery and Maple. So it was good day. Sure am tired though. Going back for more tomorrow.
Thanks for the replays.
