    I got a buck on cam that I've never seen before. A decent looking 2 1/2 year old 10 pointer. He looks amazingly like an older 10 I've gotten on cam for the last 2 years. What do you think? Could they be related?

    Here they are sparring with each other.

    I'd say father and son or uncle and nephew definitely! He's looking like he has some great potential either way.

    No doubt about it. Look at the last picture !! Only a father would shove his son's face the snow. Remember doing it many times to Tyler when we were shed hunting when he was a young buck !! :D

    Now that Tyler is big... I fear payback !!!! :lol:

    Seriously I have no idea. Both could have came out of the same doe that was bred by the same buck or those genetics just run heavy. How ever it is... thanks for sharing !!

    Love the last picture !!!!!

    Definitely look like they could be related. The difference in body size is crazy!

    Almost tell by the way they look like they are acting that they share genes
