Peach Wood???

edited November -1 in EggHead Forum
I have a peach tree which has produced some delicious fruit for the first time ever this year. After the last peaches come off I will need to cut back some branches. Most of these are anywhere from 1" to 3" around.

When I cut these should I save them and let them dry out to use as smoking wood? If so, how long do they need to dry out before I use them for smoking?

Any and all suggestions are appreciated...

    Seriously, this is good smoking wood.

    Seriously, let me haul some of it off for ya....

    Vacation is good, but I am growing weak from a lack of egged food and bored for not being able to egg.

    I've worn my egghead T-shirts 3 days in a row now.

    Hopefully lunch with CWM today will pick up my spirits.
