these two Colorado County low fence bucks are coming in every morning. One is taller with more inches, one is a year or so older. Would you shoot the left or the right?

The left buck but I would not pass up the second buck he if stepped out first. Both are excellent Colorado County bucks. Is this along the River area?

Some great bucks have been killed off the river in the years past. I know of a 170"+ gross buck killed back in 2006 IIRC.

How old is the younger one? I'd most likely shoot the first one to present a good shot, particularly if there is a good probability that the neighbors will shoot them. If they showed up together I'd be tempted to shoot the older one.

Me too. But in a perfect world, take the older one and let the young one walk to get next year.

Both great bucks up

I would hope for the left but would let an arrow fly if the other showed first.

And I thought this would be a political thread grin

Both are nice, I kinda like the right one, I think the left one, may be neat to see the following year. I would bet though if one was picked now, there could be some "internal struggle" if the other showed 1st LOL. Almost like "how many points do you want to dust off very few months?"

Apart from the brow tines, it looks like the same buck with a year's growth.
