  We present results for renormalized matrix elements related to the
unpolarized quasi-distribution function of the $\Delta^+$ baryon making use of
the large momentum effective theory. Two ensembles of $N_f=2+1+1$ twisted mass
fermions with a clover term and pion masses of 250 MeV and 330 MeV are
analyzed. We employ momentum smearing to improve the overlap with the boosted
$\Delta$ state significantly reducing in this way the statistical error of both
two- and three-point functions.
