Sure would be a nice problem to have, picking between these four.

Neck shot on any one of them..

I don't trust myself at that distance. I'd have to get closer and target one of the three larger ones. What's behind that big fence?

300yds with a .270 is a far shot so i would move in for a closer shot and hope that by the time i get closer one of the big guys gives me a clear broadside shot.

It's what you don't see.

From the terrain they're on and terrain beyond, I take it that a "stalk" really means "low crawl". 30 minutes of light left? Then you'll deal with waning light too, and more shadows. I'm guessing this photo wasn't taken from the prone, and the view's going to be significantly different once you go to ground. Think you can come up to kneeling or sitting from 200 or 150 and hit them before they bolt?

I've hit targets at twice that range, but I don't think reliably enough to take a chance crippling and losing such a great buck as any of these at 300.

And, just a little concerned about that fence. My grandparents had one of those around one side of their shelterbelt, just on a little rise above their house. Their place looked a lot like this from the pasture side of the fence. A miss or skip's likely to go right through it.

Think I'll just sit and see what four nice bachelors do on a sunny evening. Where might they be in the morning? How can I set up to maybe catch them then?

I would sneek up another 50 yards, and wait for a broadside shot on the second buck from the left.

Your first clue should be the fence and what looks like a power or telephone pole. Probably a house on the other side of the fence. I'd pass.
