Two of the holes can be re used. The other 6 are different

The Duke and Baron share the same hole pattern

The Jester and Griffon share the same hole pattern

Both hole patterns are different, and there is a fifth hole on the toe of the Duke/Baron

No, the toe is 4 holes like the jester as is the toe. There is one more hole in the center where the touring switch is. However the majority of the heel and toe holes don't match up.

Baron and Jester share 2 holes, the 2 front holes in the toe pieces for both bindings have the same spacing in terms of width. Additionally, spacing to the BSL center line is identical.

I know people who have mounted dukes over jester holes of the same BSL no problems in terms of hole closeness as well as being able to re use two holes.

Yeah, this is what i meant the reason i said toe was because the 5th is on the toe/hinge part of the binding, but it is closer to the center of the bindings
