Default Youth ????? Spike or 8 Point?

For all you dad's out there, and youngsters...just curios, if given the question, "Would you rather pass up a 4 pt. this year, shooting a doe instead and shoot an 8 pt. next year? or would you rather just shoot the 4 pt. this year, and not shoot the 8 pt. next year because he's already dead?

How would most kids respond, and is it that big of a deal for a kid to shoot a little "buck" over a doe, when it's possible they have never even shot a deer in their life. When I was 17 I passed up my first chance at a buck-a 4 pt., because I didn't want to end my season too soon, and be it misquided or not 14 years ago, I thought he might be around the next year.
