Mesquite

Mesquite is a Sonoran Desert Species, at least that’s where I started to find it. It grows everywhere apparently as long as it has a lot of water and a lot of sun. It’s a very hard wood.  It has a lot of dark color.  People used to use it a lot for rifle gun stocks like Black Walnut.  There’s a very interesting growth to the Mesquite; it grows really wild.  Very seldom can you get a straight mesquite tree.  It’s very gnarly, and it grows very erratically.
