    Need some opinions here. I have came to my own conclusion, but want to see what you guys think. I have two sets of pics here, they are only three minutes apart. Are they the same deer?

    I'm going to say no. On the top pic, ont he right antler, between the two big points, there is a very small one. It doesnt seem to be there on the bottom one. but Im no where near the expert that some of these guys are.


    Very nice buck(s) though !

    I'm no expert, but the body coloring, neck girth and the unique coloring on the leg near his tarsal gland make me think it's the same deer.

    Same buck. The left G3 with a small bend gave it away for me. Now go smoke him!:rock:

    Definitely the same deer in my mind as well. I tell you what though, if you can see to it that that deer is on the Northwest side of Jacksonville tomorrow morning at say 6:40 AM I'll gladly do what I can to get some close ups.

    Is he in Morgan County? He's a nice one, no doubt

    Guys I agree. When I first pulled the card this afternoon and looked at the pics on my cell phone I thought they were two different bucks. However, after getting a better look this evening on my full size computer screen I changed my mind.

    Ok, so what about these two sets of pics. 2 days apart...is this the same deer???

    No question about it, I fully agree with OHbowhunter, I see the same thing in that left G3. Good luck, that's a wall hanger for sure.

    Okay my first responce was to your 1st set of pictures. The 2nd set is a whole different story. Pic 1,3 and 4 and the same deer. Pic 2 is an entirely different deer. Pic's 1,3,4 have a shorter left main beam after the last tine. Pis 2 has an additional tine angling in toward the center a little. Nice spot there friend, what's known as a honey hole where I am from. Best of luck to you.

    Vthunter, I see what your sayin. However, I believe pics 1 & 2 have to be the same deer due to the fact that they are only seven seconds apart.

    The same goes for pics 3 & 4. They to are only 7 seconds apart. However, there are two days between the two sets of pics.
