Mastodon or Gomphothere?

Mastodon or Gomphothere? Northeast Texas North Sulphur River area find.

Pretty sure Gomphothere.

Like a good 80% 

Usually mastodons have more articulated less rounded molars while 

Gomphotheres have rounded molars that tend to be more bubbly to me

 

First image is a mastodon.
Second is a gomphothere

(EDIT: I realized that you were in the Sulphur river in texas, where mastodons have been pulled out but I have not been able to find someone who pulled out a gomphothere. 
Gomphotheres died out 1.6 million years ago while mastodons have been around since 10,000 years ago. They both lived with each other but had a different range. I'm not sure exactly what part of the river you were on but I can't be sure now.)
