First two are the same deer. 4th is tough to see. Which would you shoot if you were in a 1-buck county, no AR's.

#1 needs to find out what lead tastes like and another year wouldn't hurt on the shooter

I've killed 5 deer in my life the biggest two were basket racked 8 pointers. I have never seen anything with more than 8 points from the stand.

If the buck all the way at the bottom walks out, it would be easy for me to pass on him. If the 10 walks out, it will be really difficult not to shoot. Any ideas on how old the 10 looks?

I would say the 1st one needs to go to the freezer!!!

Tough call. Anyway you can let a son/nephew/friend take the freak and you take the shooter?

I would shoot the 1st one this year and hope the other ones make it til next.

Take the first out. I would much rather have the second one breeding and producing more just like him.

Depends on when you shoot them. After the rut I'd take the big guy, but before the rut I'd take a good friend out or a kid to shoot the cull.

Definetly shoot the first one and let the bigger better ones breed.

I'd shoot the 3rd buck for myself. Then I'd take a kid, nephew, neice, son, daughter, neighbor, buddy, wife, girlfriend or other to kill the top two bucks.
