My tree has been doing this for a few years now, I’ve bought a few different sprays for it and nothing seems to help. It’ll look good for a few month then this happens clears up then again. I’m about to have it pulled out and replaced with a Oak. I’m not too sure what kind of tree it is but I’m leaning towards a Ash? What can I do to get it cleared up? Thanks for your time.

Fairly certain it's Leaf Spot Anthracnose. To be positive, you can take some cuttings/samples and send them in a zip lock or vacuum sealed bag to Texas ATM Plant Diagnostic Lab (https://plantclinic.tamu.edu/). The cost is minimal.
For treatment, start this coming February with a systemic fungicide. Apply per label instructions based on tree size, then re-apply in May then again in August. You can also use a topical spray fungicide but I'd stay away from copper products.
Can you take some pictures of the entire yard? Do you have irrigation? If so, you may be over-watering. What is your soil type (sandy, clay,.loam, etc...)?Last edited by Sackett; 11-28-2021, 08:06 PM.
