That is Hack Berry. Was the Hack Berry in question cut from "high ground"?????
The reason I ask, I just recently had a chance to cut a few down.
The ones cut on high ground are starting to stick " due to drought mode" I believe.
The ones I have cut near the river bottoms " low ground" peel off perfectly.
Just my two cents of experiences.

Always a few exceptions to the rule.... And you have one. ;) I wonder since its fresh cut if submerged in a pond/creek would help the bark loosen some. Should be a few good bows in there.
