By a good bit. He definitely takes after his maternal grandfather.
I call bullshite on the notion that males stop growing when they are 18y/o.
My son was still growing til at least 20y/o. maybe more.
One of the most humbling and bitter/sweet moments of my life came when my son was 18y/o and demonstrated that he was now stronger than me.
But thats alright cause when we have to move something he gets the heavy end now. lol

I don’t think I grew after 18
Like why are we just assuming sons are automatically just gonna outgrow their dads lol… I didn’t

My dad was 5'9" on a good day. His dad was 5'6". I am 6'2". I'm also weirdly shaped; 6'5" torso on 5'9" legs.

4 inches taller than me at 16. He looks just like me. A daily reminder of what I could look like if I was young, tall, and in shape

I was 6’ 2”; my son is 5’ 10 1/2”.

I have instituted a family policy that none of my sons are taller than me. Regardless of their height, they are not taller than me.
I’m 6’2”, and even though I have three sons the measure over 6’3” they’re not taller than me.

My son is currently 6" taller than me. Guess my wife had some good height genes.
Jody tends to be tall and have long, nimble fingers.....
My son is about 2 inches taller than me now but when I was just a few years younger than he is now we would have been about the same height....I had an accident and my right leg is 3 inches shorter than my left so I lost about an inch in height and then old age has caught up and I am now 5'10" when I was 6' when I graduated high school....

He's at least 6'3"
We have tall genes from both sides of the family and he got them all (daughter too [no pics] who is 5'7" to Mrs. udtiger's 5'3").
