We have Black Locust. No thorns, and it lasts 40 years as fence posts. There are many varieties of crap that takes over old farm land. The worst I believe is cherry. Cut a tree 6" diameter flush with the ground, it sprouts 10 more that lay horizontal on the ground three or four feet before turning skyward, and bushing out.
Before owning a dozer I bought an old tractor, and Bush Hog. One sprout at a time, I'd knock it down, (4" diameter), then raise the hog as high as I could, and chew it up. The method is slow!
