I'll generally shoot the first legal thing that crosses my path. Blacktails where I hunt are usually pretty "typical". Most racks are balanced. We'll see 3x4s or 2x3s fairly often, but nothing real weird. If I do see something weird, I'll kill it.
One of the coolest weird things I've seen was a buck with a double rack ... two main beams coming up from the skull on each side. It was a 5x5, but it was a 2x3 plus a 3x2 rather than having single main beam on each side. The whole thing was a "basket" about the size of a medium cantaloupe. It was mounted on my grandpa's wall.
I also saw a 4 x "cactus" once ... but not in deer season. Never found it again.
