Very nice indeeed. BUt I have to agree, the deer in the 1st stealth cam pic isn' t even close to the one you killed. Tines and spread are all different. The second stealth cam pic, isn' t really clear enough to see the details.

Nice buck, congrats on a good scouting job. It doesn' t matter if the deer is one you got a pic of or not, you killed a nice buck.

Thanks for all the comments guy' s. I did find something very interesting yesterday when I skinned out the buck. When I got the 2nd deer cam picture of the buck I noticed that it looked like something was wrong with his back right leg. When he put his foot down it would leave a crooked track. So when I harvested the buck you could see that his back right leg had been injured. So that is why I know for sure the buck I killed was the one in the 2nd deer cam picture. When I was skinning the buck there was a knot right above his hoof the size of a softball. When I cut the knot open you would never guess what was in there..... A dang poachers bullet!!!!! It was a 22.cal bullet that had busted the deers leg bone. I know it was a poacher because where I was hunting does not have a rifle season. @amn poachers!!!!!!!!!!!!!![:@]

After reading your story, and looking at the pcitures and NOT reading any replies I thought the same thing...no way are these 2 deer the same deer. They may be brothers because they are similar...but different. The main beams on your deer go more " straight up" while the buck on the camera curve more forward. Also, the buck on the camera, his main beams come A LOT closer together than the one you harvested. My 2 cents anyway...
