That is an extreme exception to the ones I've seen jhouse. Would be interesting to know at what stage in life that buck became a stag. The ones we get seem to be born stags and never amount to more than the original buck posted.
I would concur. We kill 3-5 a year.
Going anywhere where from just a glob to velvet mainframe 6-10 etc. but one above is world class
What type of fences are on the property? I have never seen or heard of so many cut bucks? I saw a young girl shot one not quite that big in the last year or so somewhere in the southeast.
Not cut, more under developed. Biologist says its from eating fungas and lichens off the granite rock at a young age.
Normal five stand fences, but ya never killed one that was cut. They all had nuts just peanuts.
They don't breed or rut... Just eat. Even drought years they are butter balls. Meat is awesome and very tender. Had a few I pulled back straps off. Neibghor killed a 140 8pt a few years back
