Sellers have gotten away from using clear bags that you can see the wood chuck size. The last 3 boxes I bought had mostly small chunks. I was wondering where others get their wood chunks?
 
I get my woodchucks right in the back of the head with my .22cal Diana model 48 pellet rifle with mostly Super H-points. 😉

Wood chunks Wally World or Tractor Supply.
My last box from Wally where pretty small and I was just in tractor supply today. Never thought to check.
 
I have a buddy who sells them as a side gig. I get full feed sacks of perfect chunks for $25. Usually has cherry, apple. pear, hickory and oak.
I guess I should go back to Pecan. I can find on the ground every where here. That use to be all I use but I been stuck on Hickory. Guess maybe time to change back. The last Pecan I got was pretty smoky which is what got me to try hickory than really liked it.
 
I just split up a bunch of wild cherry on Saturday…

I have not bought wood chunks in a while. I have wild cherry, live oak, pecan, and hickory on hand.
I have a dead hickory in my woods that I am planning to cut down, and some oak still in logs that I need to get cut up. I would love to get my hands on some pecan, but unfortunately I don’t think they grow in PA! So I guess I’ll just have to buy some chunks from Lowe’s.

Fun fact for ya...the paper shell pecan was developed right here in Louisiana...about 5 miles from my house actually. Pecans and pecan trees became a cash crop along with indigo way before sugar cane. Every pecan crop tree in America can be traced back to right here in Louisiana.

That’s cool! I enjoy little known facts like that!

I have found over time the beat thing for me is to split a few logs of the wood I want and once I get them the diameter I want I use a reciprocating saw to cut the sticks in to chunks. I get exactly what I want. I do grab bags from time to time from Lowes or Home Depot but that's a bit of a gamble.
