Need Help Identifying This Tree

[MJLsLawnCareNmo]

I need to identify what kind of tree this is. I have an idea of what it is, but I need to obtain opinions to know for sure. I have 2 pictures of the Overall tree shape, 2 pictures of the bark, and 2 pictures of the buds. Pleas view all pictures prior to posting your thoughts. I know its winter and there are no leaves on it, which makes it harder to ID. Thanks.

I agree with Husky, looks like sugar maple to me.

I would reduce the left stem by 30 % thereby forceing the right stem to dominate. In 3-5 years further reduce the lef stem, making the right stem the central leader. Id make 2 cuts in 6 years and the 10th year make a final cut ont he left side.
