Photo #1 - #4 are of the same elk? My question is, are the rest of the pictures of the same elk? Not a trick question and I don't know the answer. I am really hoping to have all the photos of the elk I harvested this year be of the same animal but I'm not quite sure now. Sorry about the quality but they are zoomed in photos using my cellphone through a spotting scope.

#3 looks like a different bull.

Much easier if you match the pose. Ie.. . if the elk is facing away and you want to compare. Take pics the same way. Nice bull.

Ok, now go! Shoots-Straight you were a little early. Remember #1 - #4 are the same elk. How about the last 3 pictures?

@ trade-doer... #3 is the same bull. How about the last 3 pic's? @BowCrossSkin... I asked nicely but the elk wouldn't cooperate with my pose suggestions. Lol!

Gunther, he seems to be cooperating quite nicely in pics one and two! Ha!
Beams seem too short on the bottom 3 but could be just his stretched out neck throwing that off. Either way it's a smoker bull! Congrats!

#3 looks to be different. Longer 6th on the back right and it runs straight back instead of angling downward.

I agree #3 looks to be a different bull because of reason mule mentioned. As for the last 3 pics its hard to say, picture quality is lacking for a good guess. Congrats on a great bull.
