Do you think this is the same buck?

This is the deer my brother hit in the neck at bow season a week prior to gun season. It was taken on the Monday after opening day, field edge checking scrapes. Do you think it could be the same deer we have here on trail cam. I think so, how about you?

I'm going to say no, two different deer.

[shooter]

[ny hunter]

2 different deer!

[WNYBuckHunter]

The brow on the right beam does not look to have the curve to it like the one in velvet does.

[BrianNY]

If you look at both closely side by side, they look very, very different.

[Renegade Hunter]

Yea.. Same curvature with the left tine but the right tine looks a little more curved on one than the other. And the velvet buck is def wider by the looks of things.

[First-light]

A landslide of no. The trail cam pict was 6/16 so the deer idid have two more months to grow. I'll go with you guys and hope he is still out there!
