" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

That buck only has a couple days left to live if he does not find a better place to sleep. Head to the hills if you want to live.

That second buck looks a little heavier then the first one. I like the dark antlers. Were both bucks in the first picture you posted?

I shot my first buck with that angle. Marlin 30-30, broke his back at the base of his neck. Worked out pretty well, I'd do it again, and yes, I'd shoot that buck this weekend, given the chance.

Is that a 2x4?  Not that I care, I'd still split the back like cheap lumber...

I wouldn't pass that buck up in WA with a general tag on public land...

Maybe if I had private land access or a drawing tag I'd leave it alone, but that's about it.
