I would be happy with either. If I had my choice I think I would take the junk buck. How often do you see a junk buck that has that much junk. Dont get me wrong, the typical is nice too but I think you see more big typicals than you see big non typical of this caliber. I think if your a trohy hunter, than every collection needs a huge junk buck. Just to keep the collection well rounded.

The typical buck no question! Although more typicals probably abound, finding a world class typical is harder than a non-typical in my opinion.

I love big typicals.
There is something majestic about them.

It has to do with the fact that such a deer represents one of the best manifestations of what a Whitetail buck can be, given ideal genetics and environment. They are an example of how a whitetail should look.

Old, big typical deer are what I dream of shooting.

With that said, I'll shoot the first one that comes in range at the beginning of the season to put meat in the freezer, and I'd shoot a non-typical anytime except if it meant passing on a big typical.

If it came right down to it and they were standing side by side? I would try to set my sights on that beautiful typical. (But only if they were both standing within range side by side) But no matter which buck in my dreams That i was to get? There would be no complants from me.
