M2A:
I have had summer cut witch hazel turn my hands orange while debarking. NA native species, would be an exotic near you. I dont see enough regular hazel around my parts to know the leaf shape.

Redbow:
An update: went back to the park to take a better look, I am pretty sure this is black poplar. There is actual hazel nearby, but the tree they cut was poplar. I assume poplar does not make a good bow, right?

superdav95:
I’ve never worked it myself and it’s pretty soft stuff I hear that poplar wood.
