Same buck or not?

[FishHunterPro]

I don't have to many pics of these buck but they have shown up in November on the same game camera and having a closer look I think they could be the same guy. The only clue that made me think it might be the same deer is cause of how wide the browtines are apart. What do you think?

I think it could be the same deer. There are a few features that are pretty close in each picture. Either way, he is a nice deer and is one I would definately put in my freezer.

Pretty sure your right

[RoscoeP]

I don't think they are.

[Drop_Tine]

Yup

Are these 1 year apart? I have never had one gain that much in one year... Not saying it isn't possible, it certainly is - but my guess is it isn't the same deer.

Unless the hidden side in the second picture is gimpy, he is a nice buck.

I think it is the same buck. Brow tines look almost the same. This is a good year for antler growth. First pic 3.5 years old second pic 4.5. Just my quess.

Agree ... same buck:test:

Yes I would bet my money on it being the same buck. Ive had many bucks gain tons of growth year-year on my cams

[BigRackLover]

I'm thinking the same - brow tines

[diamonddave]

Yep its just a year older with some good growth, think of what he will be if he made it another 2 years.....

[FishHunterPro]

Yes these pics are only one year apart, the first is 2011 and second is 2012. Never had pics of either buck before or after the rut . But I'm not getting caught with my pants down and I'm assuming he will be back right on time to take care of business this year . I have a way bigger buck on the same camera that was like a ghost until the rut hit in 2011 and he made regular appearances and then he vanishes never to be seen again on the camera until he shows up again right on time in the 2012 rut and I wasn't ready for him. I will be ready for him too this year.

Let em grow.!! This buck will be a monster in 2 years. Young deer you'd be a fool to kill him with that much potential

Hard to say. The brows look very similar. If it is the same buck he added some serious inches in a year. I would give him another year and see what else he grows

Look at his eyes in the day light photo, not too many deer with eyes like that. You need a day time photo of the buck this year, I think it's the same deer, I have had 110 inch deer turn into 150-160 inch deer in a year. This is a pic from last yearhttp://i1338.photobucket.com/albums/o687/crownb2/null_zpsb108f284.jpgand here is this years pichttp://i1338.photobucket.com/albums/o687/crownb2/null_zpsb0159894.jpghere is another example this is a 2012 pichttp://i1338.photobucket.com/albums/o687/crownb2/null_zps2686cd56.jpgand this is from this yearhttp://i1338.photobucket.com/albums/o687/crownb2/null_zpsc3f8d782.jpg

I would say yes, they are

[J-Driver]

if not the same, I would say same blood line at the very least. The brows are very similar, but the g2s have a noticeable curl in the first pic, where theyre straight in the second. Main beams have similar shape as well, tough call. Areas I have had cams for 3-4 years many bucks have similar structure like this.
