Is this hackberry?
-
I cant tell you what it is but it s not hackberry. I guess i should say it doesnt look like any hackberry ive ever seen.
-
Ok thank you.
-
Trying to find me some good bow wood around here but no luck. It's even harder if you can't Id that many trees. Lol!
-
I'd say that was hackberry with those corky warts all over it.
-
I don't know where you are, but that doesn't look like the hackberry we have in Indiana.

I am In Arkansas. About 5 miles from the boot heel of mo. town called Paragould.

I ran into that same problem when I was getting started. But once you get a go-to species that you can identify easily, things will pick right up for you.

It looks JUST like the Hackberry we have in Alabama.

I'd say it is a hackberry of some kind, I've noticed some variation in the bark around where I live. Could be a subspecies as well, maybe Georgia hackberry?

Ok thanks everyone. I will be cutting some of that down. Maybe soon I hope.
-
that is absolutely hackberry the barks vary a lot
-
Its wierd how the bark varies from region to region.
-
Our hackberry here is NE has some wart texture to the bark - but nothing like that. I agree with outlaw - funny how it can vary.
-
Here is what our hackberry looks like

Yep that be Hackberry.
Turtle, the Hackberry you are seeing is likely to be Northern Hackberry which has "regular" looking bark most times.
Netleaf Hackberry (aka Western Hackberry) and Sugerberry (aka Southern Hackberry) have the warts growing on them.
