gator Posted January 22, 2014 Report Posted January 22, 2014 went to a buddy's ranch down in south texas for a few days to recharge the batteries and thought you guys would like to see the pictures of pictures.20 or so years ago my bud and his dad cut trees dried them milled them and made these. this is some beautiful work. and yes he still has a lot of wood and gave me a truck bed full of dried mesquite wood he still had. also did a little target shooting and hand gun training while there. nice to have your own shooting area. amazingkevin 1 Quote

LarryEA Posted January 22, 2014 Report Posted January 22, 2014 You are blessed! You are blessed! Oh, I already said that. Well, you were blessed! There is a limited supply of misquite even in Texas, I would think. It is beautiful...You were blessed. Larry Quote
gator Posted January 22, 2014 Author Report Posted January 22, 2014 no no no larry there is not a limited supply of mesquite in texas, no there is a limited supply of big straight grain but in south and west texas it is thick as crawdads in Louisiana. its a pain here takes over but grows twisted a lot and is a pain but beautiful wood and well far as smoking meat none better Quote
