Is pear good for smoking?

[Lake Chuck Duck]

I am about to be cutting down a pear tree in my yard. Its not the regular pears, but the canning pears that you cant just pull off and eat. I have heard of people using different fruit wood for smoking meats and was curious if pear could be used.

What I am getting at is when I cut down this tree, anyone that wants the logs can come get them. Otherwise I am just goin to throw it all away.
