Right. We don't have much Honey Locust here, but I confuse the 2 since Black Locust wood is a cream/pale yellow color.PA. Woodsman said:I don't mean to contradict what Logbutcher said, but it sounds to me that he is confusing Black Locust for Honeylocust. , Black Locust is the one that is fairly dry when green and is used for fenceposts and other things because it's very rot-resistant. Honeylocust will develop fungus on the cut sides when it rains; Black Locust is clearly the more desirable of the two woods. Just my experience with the woods.

One of my favorite bow hunting spots is a thicket loaded with honey locust, hedge, and multi floral rose.....lets just say I stopped wearing rubber boots to conceal my scent. :bang: The thicker the sole and the leather the better when around these areas.
