From what you can see it is pretty tough to tell. No distinguishing marks or tines. Good looking bull / bulls though.

+1 - and look at the growth!!! If they are different, they've both got AWESOME mass on their base. This is really cool cause its public. I hope you got your Elk tag this year AND you can post some pics of a harvest on this one.

Reason I think they are different

is the hair on the neck left over from last year on one...the other looks pretty slicked off. There are about a dozen rag horn hulls in that area too :-$ ....its a horse ride into there, but I have 3 tree stands in the area and know where they water soooooo...I am keeping my fingers crossed :thumb .

Nice pix.. I agree with Nonya.. The 3rds are allot lower on the 2nd picture..
and on the 2nd pict the front brow tine has a nice twist about half way up than on the 1st picture it does not. Its hard to tell
What on earth are they smelling in the corner of the pict? Please do tell :)
Is this a general unit or a limited entry? Looks like you have a nice location!

Looks like they might be different bulls, tough to tell for sure from the angles. Nice pics.

Wow seeing all those trees in the backround sure gets me pumped :)) ..Nice Pictures but I think they could be the same bull.

I'm having a hard time with the 2nd photo, almost looks like the elk was photoshopped into it. If not, that is an exceptional photo!
Nothing like the great outdoors! :)
