Sometimes it's hard being me! But somebody has to do it.

Both are fantastic bucks


High fence, low fence, no fence, it really doesn't matter as long as you're hunting!

That symmetry on the 8 is hard to beat. Nice bucks

Both great deer. I like that old gnarly 10.

I think I'll go with the 10. The 8 doesn't do it for me with the muscularity as it doesn't represent what you realistically see in the field.

Both are great bucks! cheers

I wish I had a close up of the 8 (deer on the left) because sometime they do look muscled up as you can see on picture #2. I'd still like to take that guy but no one has seen him since last year.

You talking about the mount or the rack? Lean a little to the 8 but both good.

Don't get me wrong. Inch for inch (all being equal), I'll take a big 8 over a big 10 any day. I just think the mount of the 10 is more realistic-looking. But again, great bucks!
