I say 5-6 on the top deer, very nice!

Honestly on weather they are the same deer or not... who knows! One year I had 3 tens that I saw from 2.5-3.5 years old I had a hard time telling which was which in person at 50 yards they were so similar. Without a unique rack or a split ear etc. I have a hard time saying I think much of anything is the same deer from last year, much less 2 years ago.

At first glance I would agree with 5 yr old. But he is setting down on his hooves pretty good which to me indicates he is older. He has the big jug head look of a fully mature buck, just the body of a 5 yr old. I would not be surprised if he did not tooth 7 yrs old. Not sure if it is the same buck since the brow tines appear to be shaped different. Beams look very similar.

Brows look pretty similar to me, all begin around the same point on the beam, all pretty straight, and seems the right side(deer's left) hooks in a little at top. I wouldn't say they are the same, but wouldn't argue against either. Just my 2cents... with inflation its more like $0.01

Also if that is him in the other pictures, that photo shows him to be older than 3.5 to me which would make him older than 5 now.
