beaker98, I think it is probably the Hickory Borer. Looking at the references you provided, it says the locust borer is more fall active as opposed to hickory which is spring active. I don't think there are many locust in this area, and a lot of Hickory. Thanks for the ID
Sorry, I missed the cut down hickory part:). Duh😳. Ignore the Locust Borer ID.
