Not my best pics due to low light conditions, but they are okay.

The mid west has always intrigued me on hunting whitetails, would those be considered big for the area?  Love the pics, and I'd shoot any one of those here in Wa or late Idaho hunt, just wondering what their standard is for "big". 
“In common with”..... not so much!!

The 2nd and 3rd photographs are not bucks I would shoot. Generally im only targeting bucks above 140" that are mature bucks in this area. Should have shot a 150" buck very similar to the 1st photograph but some people ruined my hunt that evening. Seen several other nice bucks, but no chance for photos.

I have a hard time not pulling the trigger on deer outside their ears with mass, that being said the deer in pictures 5, 7 and 8 would have got no hesitation. Those 3 are beautiful mature bucks with great character.
