It is in the white oak family so it should be ok to use.

Awesome. Ive been looking for oak for ages (even went down the wine barrel road) but all was a bit expensive an didn't want to go down the pre loved JD chips etc. I didnt stop and think about the fact that i now work for the council parks an rec....... our parks have huge white oaks, every wind we get trees breaking an in need of clean up.
