honestly I don't even know, it was a tree in southern Ill that was over grown and needed to be trimmed, so I did!
it had several main limbs but this section I cut off had a nice straight run,
the leaves were very small and in clumps, like a fern.

I stripped it, dried it (for months) and even put a compass in the head!
it's held up very nice, strong and no rotting.

it's about 5'4" long.
