Willow Oak Wood

I just trimed a large branch off of a huge willow oak tree in my yard. I'm wondering if it's OK to chunk and use for smoking. It's the variety with pencil thin leaves and produces small acorns.

Does the variety of oak matter?

Has anyone used wood from a willow oak before?

Thanks,

It's found more in the southern and eastern parts of the US.

I'm thinking it should be OK and would impart the about the same flavor as any other oak variety.

I figured someone on the board would have used it before.

Thanks,
