Anyone think this could be the same deer from last year?? He had more points, but I believe I see some similarities.

Looks like the same deer to me. That is awesome. Looks like he was on his way downhill this year. You ever age him?

Thanks fellas. I thought it was the same one too, but my buddy didn't. Just wanted to collect others opinions. I hunted hard last year on this property, I was in his core area for almost the whole month of November. I stopped getting pics of him late in the season, and soon after found a road kill buck with his antlers cut off that had huge bases. I thought for sure it was him. I make a point not to target specific bucks for the very reason that I only have access to very small tracts of land and the bucks I see and get pics of usually end up getting shot on a neighboring property. I just try to put myself in natural funnels, and if a deer I know comes by, all the better. Usually it is bucks I have never seen before. Having hunted in this bucks area hard last season and having multiple pictures of him, this makes it even more special and unique indeed. I have not aged or measured him yet, will do all of that once I get back from the processors. Aging by teeth is not very accurate after 2.5 years of age, but I would like to see how worn they are. Judging by his face, weight, over all apperance and the fact that his antlers have gotten slightly smaller from last year, I would say he is at least 5.5 years old.

Send his teeth to DeerAge. They will split them and tell you for sure how old he is for somewhere around 35 bucks. Well worth it if you wanted to know.
