If I was with a grandson then the first one to step out would become cube steak.

how is a huge symetrical 8pt 100" ?

160" I'd shoot if it were a huge symetrical 8pt.

a basket 10pt with a droptine? since you said basket I'll assume it's a tiny basket....with a tiny drop, no thanks.

If it was a small rack, with a huge drop, I might shoot it. but if tiny with a tiny drop, id pass, besides you know his genes have the drop, so why not let him go another year or two and see more drops....

Either. I'd be proud of both

I'd let them both walk. 100" 8 point is anaverage 2.5 year old around here.

shoot the one I had the best shot at
raise my standards as to what 'huge' really is
in west KS eastern CO 100" deer can be carried like small suitcases

First one that came into range

Pass on both unless it's the last 15 minutes of light on the last day of hunting season. Even then I'm not pulling the trigger unless one of them is mature (4.5+). Anything younger than that, with the racks you're describing, still has some potential.

It's all relative.

On my farm in WV...either deer is a trophy, and as hard to kill as the 160 class in other areas.

In Ohio, where I live...neither will make the paper for their racks.

As for me, I don't hunt horns to hunt horns...so if it felt right, I'd take the first one inside 20 yards.
