re: How old? To shoot or not to shoot?

My best advice to you is shoot what would make your trigger finger itch. You're not on a high fence ranch, nor or you on a huge block of like minded or regulated hunting acres, like a big MLD unit. Deer have a tough life, and there's no guarantee that they will live to next season. Hell, there's no guarantee you'll ever lay eyes on these two deer.

Now, if you were on a big block of regulated hunting lands, I'd say to pass on the front deer and consider the back deer. On a high fence, you let both of those walk.
