It looks like a Chinaberry with Its leaves stripped off.

Looks like it was browsed by deer.

Looks like Chinaberry to me as well - resprouting from a stump?

Hmm, well there's definitely lots of deer in the area...but if you look up close, the leaves are quite jagged, unlike the smooth Chinaberry leaves?

Hi-res pic def. looks like Chinaberry - esp. the flowers - that's about the only good thing about those trees - the flowers are nicely fragrant.

Yes, I believe you all are right. The branch structure definitely seems to resemble Chinaberry's...

"Good thing" the deer mowed it down, I suppose, lol.
