If you look carefully at the second hickory leaf picture you will see a leaf that has 9 leaflets.  That is another strong indicator that it is a mockernut.

Like Dodgy says, those imbricate bud scales (versus valvate) tell the tale on that hickory  :).

Just don't give him a butternut bud. I don't know about hickory so much, but on butternut terminal buds, the outermost pair of scales are feather-like in appearance. :D
