Honey locust is all I can figure based on the large rings and the color.

Might be sycamore or gum need more to go on but I am suspecting it is gumwood.

definitely NOT SYCAMORE.

 

[bsearcey]

definitely NOT SYCAMORE.

Probably Sweet Gum, but the bark is kind of beat up. The way that split looks it is definitly a gum.

We don't have a whole Lotta sweet gum in ks but we do have a lotta sycamore I'm not sure what you have there!

Bur Oak

Posted these on a separate thread and consensus was Bur Oak.

Bur Oak's bark is dark gray, thick and so deeply furrowed that it breaks into distinct ridges.

Relatively easy to split

im goin with locust, it always seems to grow very weird rings like this pic

osage orange is almost flourescent yellow when split open fresh like that

 

[MiracleRepair]

It's not hedge (osage orange) I cut that all the time, this bark is way too course, and the color is actually a yellow/green with some black rings in it.

Its a type of locust i believe not like the average stuff ive ran in to it to but it has short thorn in stead of the long ones right?
