Hard telling, but he they both have short brows. The only thing I see that leads me to believe different buck is the g2 on the deer's right side getting shorter. Who's film?
Not sure, I'm not that good at judging. Looks like it could be. But for a buck to grown that much in one year seems to be a lot. I guess it's possible though!
Sheesh, sorry Betty! Nice catch.....didn't look at the throat patch. Also looks like he has a little blonde in his forehead.
That throat patch is damning. I found the radical change in the brow tines interesting though. Maybe they're brothers.
He grew more antler on that right side though. I've seen this happen numerous times when a deer grows more points on one side the next year in young deer. It always seems to be their G-2's that suffer. I say for sure a yes on that being the same deer.
After pointing out the double throat patch I'd say yes. It is offset to the left side of the deer's throat and the same size in both pics. It would be very unusual to see two buck in the same are with that trait in that much detail.
