RE: OK here is a scenario.... What would you do?
seeing as I can consistantly hit the 'mid' section of a 3-d target at 80yds, im holding about 1ft higher and lettin an arrow fly.
honestly i dont know what i would do, ive killed 1 decent P&Y that will score close the the first one so I think i would be tempted to wait for the big boy. hopefully i'll be able to let you guys know how the scenario turns out this fall.

25 yards broadside, no question TAKE IT!! Even though there is a possibility that somehow that monster will come within 40 yards but not as good a possibility of me getting a shot on a very nice buck.

I would wait on the Muy Grande, as we say here in Texas. 
That is a deer of a lifetime, where I feel I will have more opportunities in the future to harvest similar deer as the first one.

Extremely easy choice for me. Seeing as how I've already got one bigger than the first one on my wall behind me, I'm waiting on the big one without a second thought.
Even if I hadn't have already collected one as big as the first one, I'm still waiting on the second one without a thought.

I'd definitely wait it out with no regrets either way. Had it happen in Illinois this past season except the first buck was just a bit bigger and the second wasn't quite as huge. Had a 135" +/- at 12 yards but a borderline booner was just out of range. Waited for the booner and never got the shot.
Oh well, they'll both be bigger next year
