Tree ID, sourwood?

Hey guys what do you think this tree is? I'm leaning towards sourwood but not sure. The description of the sourwood talks about it growing irregular (bends) and this one definitely does.

First pic definitely reminds me of sourwood. Dad had to take down a small one last weekend to get a red oak. I personally think it's a pretty wood, but it splits like crap.

The flowers look like Sourwood, and no other tree-sized plant has similar flowers. It's Sourwood.
