If you saw two bucks standing togather and one was a typical 4X4 that net scored 220 and the other buck was a nontypical that net scored 250 what buck would you shoot and why? I would shoot the typical.

I would be happy with either one but if I had to choose, I'd shoot the Typical. Why? a 220 typical buck is just a few inches short of the World record that was killed by Doug Burris in Colorado in 1972.

220" Typical is big, REALLY big.

I'd take the either, but I'm a sucker for extras so the non-typical would hit the dirt first.

ya i think i would take the non typical. like brett, im a big fan of the extras

well i'm going to picture the nontypical buck as haveing a 235 net typical frame with 15 inches of scoreable extras so i would shoot him, so maybe i would end up with the world record typicle deer with some kickers to boot! but seriously-------- i think i might bag the typicle here for the same reason as hiker, thats so close to the world record. it would also depend on the look of both deer; all i'm asking is for a chance in real life to make that decision thats really not asking that much -is it???

im a fan of big typicals, but i would have to see what that other buck looked like if he had double droppers i would have a tough time not shooting. tough choice just depends ob the mood im in

Im with ox on this one if it was a nontyp with droppers and stickers and kickers... I would drop him first. And I never would regret it. When I scout every year I always tell me brother he can shoot the biggest typical we find and Ill go after the biggest non typ.

Oh it's nice to dream but I would take the NT, their just to hard to come by.

Ahh... hard. probably the typical cause that would be like a record typical. . Go back next year and get the non typical! hah

I'd let the wife pick one then I'd take the other!!! can't go wrong they both would be going home.
