Looks the same to me!
I have one other deer that I like better than him, but it would be hard to pass him. If we get lucky, maybe my son and I can each get one.100%. Is he going to make the target buck list this year?

Keep in mind that the hard horned pics are after a long hard winter and recouping from the breeding season. The latest pics are during the summer with abundant soybeans all around. I think when the velvet sheds this year and he gets his fall body, he will resemble a Sherman Tank. My guess is that the deer is 4.5 this year. Our deer can peak or be close to peak at that age in terms of antler size.It probably is the same deer, but the pictures in velvet make him look pretty old. The hard horn picture looks young
Four is my guess Rusty. I’m almost certain 4 or 5. You are a good judge of bucks - do you think he still has any growth this year from that last picture? I’m thinking he could still gain a few inches.Same deer. 4 yr old?
