    had this oak tree trimmed up and noticed every limb has a dark spot in the center. is this normal or is something wrong with my tree. it is about 10-12 years old.

    James, I did some limb trimming too. For large limbs the first cut was about 2 foot from the trunk, the centers looks a reddish brown as normal. The cuts against the trunk were black centers. These were oak and hickory. Looking at the size of the acorns and hickory nuts there were 4 different trees of each.
    I filled a 5 gal bucket with disc and stripes cut on my bandsaw for the smoker. These cuts are now a week old and all the centers are black.
