I cant say for sure, but I think I would have let him walk.

#2 take 'em

i had this happen 2 years ago, the whole right side was broken off, so i let him walk... i dont think ive seen him since, but there is always this year to see him!

Your right this year could be the year. You just never know. I've just gotten to the point where the thrill of the chase and just being out there is enough for me. I have a closet full of small to medium racks from past years to my decision is to let them walk unless I'm sure they will be sent to the taxidermist, it would probably take a 140" buck to get me to spend the money. I would never put down anyone else for shooting anything legally. If its taken with a bow it should be considered a trophy. As I've always said to each their own.

I like your choice of #3. He could blow up into a mega giant next year, and if he is well broken, hopefully your neighbors don't shoot him. 360 is now NEARLY big enough though to hold him during the rut, he'll be seen by others, just have to hope he uses his 5 1/2 years of experience to avoid everyone.

i would choose #3

I'd shoot him and eat him. Maybe hang the antlers in my backyard shop.
