Last year:

And this year:

RE: Are these the same deer?
 

Looks similar with a little better rack.Stripe on his nose looks similar also. I got a buck a few years ago that had a white patch on his left foot and shin. I got pics of him 3 years in a row. He finally met his maker last season when my hunting partner shot him chasing a doe late one afternoon.We had watched him go from a small 6 to a nice 8pt. Someone stole my game pics out of my truck this summer or I'd scan them in for you.

RE: Are these the same deer?
 

My guess would be no... The deer in the first pic has no eye guards at all, not even nubs,, and the deer in the second pic has some small eyeguards, Its possible they are the same, but Im leaning away from it, from what Ive noticed inmy years of messing with game cams, it seems to me that the eyeguards change least of any of the points on their racks, may just be coincidence but from year to year most of the bucks I get pics of have very similar eyeguards from year to year, even if they get much bigger and add more points, the eyeguards seem to stay similarly shaped or angled from year to year, it is one of the main things I look at to compare to see if its a buck I have gotten pics of before.. jmo Nice buck though, give him another year and hed be a shooter.. Good luck!

No brow tines not even nubs probably not.
