What type of tree is this?

[First-light]

Berries or apples keep getting bigger every year. Lots of them also.

Hard to tell from the picture but it may be some sort of wild cherry.

In this area the wild cherries are gone and don't last long. As soon as they are ripe the coon hit them and can strip a tree completely in a night or two.

Based on what I can see from the picture my vote would be for a Wild Crab apple tree.

Also looks like a potential Buck Rub Tree

Yes, I have seen some crab apples that look similar.

Yes that tree got hit one year and I put an end to it. Probably this weekend I'll protect the bottom. I'm thinking crab apple also. Thanks!

Crab apple, put up a safety cage around it. Come first snow these are like candy for deer

[Northcountryman]

Yeah; Crab apple IMHO.

Could be a different type of Crab Apple, but the ones we have here have thorns coming off the base.

They also loose their leaves and fruit in late August. The wood is very hard, like Oak. Doesn't last well outside. Makes great handles.
