    The bark does look like Black Locust, but the leaves are not even close. I've never seen those leaves before.

    It's not persimmon, definitely. We have plenty of those.
    The bark is furrowed like hickory, but different some and the leaves don't look like the other hickories around the area.

    It sure does! At least the Black variety, I've never seen any other kind.

    I think honey locust has thorns, I'm not familiar with any of the locust varieties.

    I'm gonna say it's just an abnormally big sourwood. But I'm no dendrologist.

    And from the site I linked.... just a larger diameter specimen.

    I'm going with red hickory. Leaves and bark are both similar to the googles
