RE: What if???
YES BASSERMAN! ANOTHER TYPICAL FAN! I wouldn't hesitate to take the typical either. Everybody goes GAGA over the nons but I like the symetry of a beautiful typical rack. Give me a 180 class, thick massed, 10 point next to a 200 class non and I'll shoot the 10 point.

RE: What if???
I would get ready, slowly draw my bow back and put the pin on the typical to the left. Then realize too late that I'm still smoking a cigarette, as the hots burn through my string. My arrow would fly straight up and out of sight while the end of the string slaps me in the eye, disorienting me enough so I fall out of my stand. Lucky Me! I have a safety harness on! WooHoo I'm not dead. Then the arrow starts it's downward flight slicing clean through my safety harness leaving me piled up on the ground in a heap and the remaining hots from my cigarette burning a hole in my camo'd butt. The deer would run in opposite directions, waking the fat, drunken oafs in the surrounding trees just in time for them to make a once in a lifetime textbook kill shot. As I lay there in pain I think " Shoulda taken the non"...<img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>

Considering that you cannot eat antlers, unless you grind them into powder and use them as some type of erroneous dietary or sexual enhancing potion, I would take the one that appeared to offer the best table fare.

RE: What if???
Dog - I live and hunt in Indiana also and since 1989 have only seen two non-typ's and the first one wouldn't have green scored 100. The second is an 11-point with forked G2's that looks as if it could have cross-bred with a muley! He's hanging on my wall, haven't had him scored for net since his green score was only 153 3/8. Dried score would be below the P&Y min. of 150.
But I'm not so concerned with thropy racks. If I can harvest one within my personal limitations, I would probably take the first one that I seen. Typ or not.
Shoot often - Hunt always
