LOL..........Oh Boy........

The situation is not the important part of the question Dave.

If I'm lucky enough to let an arrow go at a nice buck I am going to make every effort to get both rack and meat back..call me crazy but I feel its my obligation!

I'm taking the hoofs.... I need a bowrack made from feet.... and maybe lamp.[&:]

There would have to be a reason to have to make a choice and I can imagine such a situation, like maybe an agreement between hunters, that are sharing a short hunt, where the chances of both succeeding are not that great. The agreement could be that the shooter gets to choose, but can't have both. The friend gets the other. In this case, I'm taking the rack if it's a good one. I can kill a doe almost any day of the week for meat. Taking a good buck doesn't happen all that often. For certain the meat wouldn't be wasted. In fact, I'd probably make my hunting buddy agree to give me a deer steak dinner. In return, I'd let him look at my mount while we enjoyed a beer, admiring it.

hungry + broke + college=MEAT

If the meat was not going to be used by someone else I would take the meat. If someone else was going to use it, I would take the rack.

I'd take the meat and hide the rack up my arse so the judges couldn't see 'em.[:@][:@]

On a serious note, I would take the meat for sure. You should only be taking the rack if you needed them for tools(you know running around in buckskin and stinkin) but I don't think we're talking about that.

Haven't you guys figured out that this is a HYPOTHETICAL question???? It's obvious no one would be in the situation he's asking. We would all be taking both. AM likes to push this subject from every angle. Get over it. Jeez[:'(]

What subject is that??
