Can you me identify the tree in the pictures below?

 

I believe that this is a Shellbark Hickory.

This is the husk that surrounds the nut. It is generally all green when on the tree.

This is the nut found in the husk.

The leaf typically has 7 leaflets (some smaller ones only had 5). The one below was a mid size one, but still measure over 11" total
