Default Two Nice Bucks, Which one do you think is better?

I videotaped these two bucks a couple of weeks ago and took snapshots of the video. Sorry that they are not that good of quality but that is the result of a shaky hand and trying to find a good single frame. So, which one do you think is the better buck? They are both so different...

First...taller, more mass, extra brow tine...



Second...more width, longer G-3's...

I would say if you are going to hunt either of these deer I would choose the first one. He seems to be an older deer and has a ton more mass. The second deer if let go until next year will end up being a real hog with awide rack and alot more mass.

Buck number2 looks like he would score the best.

At first glance, I would say the second one...But then again I would be happy with either one.

The second, but the 1st one is also nice because it looks unique with the extra tine.

Yeah, I am not sure that I will be hunting either one of these - I think there might be a couple of bigger ones. I just couldn't decide which one I thought was a nicer deer nor could I decide how old they were. Thanks for the input!

The better buck will probably be the second one, if he has another year or two to mature.

I would take the second, more symetrical. Mass to me looks similar. Spread which is over rated but nice goes to buck #2. However if the first one offers a shot, he would get it also. Both are beautiful bucks you have a sweet place there.
