So what is the deal 4 season jump in. These deer get no special attention. They grow huge horns. Do you have one better than that? Enclosed in an area and left to breed and grow. Share  on this please you are the expert. Would love to know your thoughts.

He is a beauty for sure. Just shows what we have for genetics in areas of the state if people would just let them get some age. As far as behind fence I have a pile that are bigger and score more but finding a clean 8pt gets tough. Always seems to have an extra point showing up here and there. I have a few good 8’s showing up on the Cam’s so far and even one of them as you can see has split brow’s on one side. Let them go… Let them grow!!!

Nice deer! Yeah been talking to a few of my neighbors about letting the 2.5 year olds walk. Majority of the deer by me grow nice racks at 2.5 and get shot. But what's missing is the mass. They aren't old enough to have huge mass and that is what I want this year and moving forward.

Another example of only taking mature bucks for a few years. It Works.
