Oh ok. It's a lot different than our mesquite.  Excellent find.

Everything about that log says juniper to me.  The sniff test will tell the story though.  If you lightly sand it and smell the wood it'll either smell like...well...cedar or it will make you hungry for pit BBQ.  LOL!  Either way, back it and make a bow.  Josh
