Two different bucks?

Trying to figure out if these pictures are of the same deer,or are they different animals.To me the first deer appears to have a longer sweep to its right beam,and the buck in the second photo does not appear to have a browtine on its right antler. Also,the sweep appears to be shorter.Wish I had better pictures.Thoughts?

2 different bucks

Yeah, the first one is younger. Has smaller brow tines and less girth at the base than the second. NICE deer by the way! good luck this season.

Definitely two different deer although I assess them differently than the above poster.

Was going to say the same thing. Top deer is the big boy.

It appears that they are different deer. The only thing that I keep wondering is the times of the pics. Is the buck in the 1st pic still in velvet? Is the 2nd pic of the same deer without velvet? Just a thought. I still belive that they are diffrent deer.
