Replying to Hot Dogger vs. Booter

hey guys,
I was looking around the internet for a new pair of park boots for next season. I wouldn't say that i'm a beginner, but I'm not that good either. so, I found a couple of veeeery good deals for this past season's hot dogger and booter. although i'll actually get a change to try them, I would like a couple of advices.

so, the first thing is that i have a very wide foot. therefore, i think that the booter (102mm right?) would fit me better.... but, are the 3mm of difference a big deal?

I was also wondering.... I read that the hot dogger is stiffer than the booter, but given that this will be my very first REAL park boot i'm not sure if i should prefer a stiffer or a softer boot. I gotta mention that I will also cruise around the backcountry sometimes with my obsetheds, but i'll spend most of the time in the park anyways.

I hope you guys can give me some advice, i'm really puzzled about these issues.

PS: if you guys wanna bring in also other models such as the ace of spades, then it would be cool, i wanted to know more about that boot too. thanks a lot :)
