IMO Culling should only be after you have addressed other issues in your management. What are your goals? Do or have you done surveys? What is your buck/doe/fawn ratio? Carrying capacity you have and for your area? What is your age structure on bucks? What age are your trying to harvest bucks? What is the age structure on your doe? Do you have to many bucks? Harvest records? After answering these then you can start to think about address culling. Most people think about improving buck quality by killing more of them. You need to address other problems first. I am a believer in the fact that you can do more to help your buck herd by culling the right doe and the right amount of them.

everyone has their own way.... to me, a cull is easy. Do you want more deer like that on your place... that's the question you ask. There are no guarantees to wipe out a specific genetic trait, but if I'm shooting for big 10 point or 12 point frames... why in the heck do I want to let a ratchet headed 4 year old 8 point eat my expensive food, and bang all the does?

they're weak 10 point frames! the one with the kickers has a 4 on his right side I didn't see before.

Here's a cull... and I don't care who you are! (stx and amos)

plus, he's like a friggen 3 year old. can't shoot them when their balls haven't even dropped yet!
