Help me ID this tree

[Robert Reece]

Neighbor is contemplating removing it. It's probably large enough to get some wood out of it. Just wondering what it is. I tried to run through some tree id websites, but didn't come up with anything that looks like a good match. I thought it might be walnut, but it doesn't bear any fruit.

[Dennis Ford]

It looks like it might be Ash.

[Henry Ambrose]

Butternut?

[Robert Reece]

I looked at ash and butternut and it just didn't seem to match.
Butternut leaves are pointed on the ends and have 11-19 leaflets. I count 9 leaflets on this tree.
Ash is still a possibility. But all the ash leaves I see are more pointed then the ones on this tree.

[Rick Cabot]

Leaves and bark are consistent with ash.

[Steven Green]

It's an ash can't miss them.

[Phil Thien]

Nothing better than a nice piece of ash.

[Robert Reece]

Ash it is! Thanks everybody.

LOL!!! That made me chuckle!

I know you've already determined it's ash, but just to confirm, the opposite branching gives it away. http://www.anr.msu.edu/robertsd/ash/ashtree_id.html
