[QUOTE="pass-thru, post: 4528258, member: 2382"] I understand the late born fawn theory, but I don't think it applies to the vast majority of low grade 2 year old bucks. I have never seen a fawn on our place before May, and never seen one with spots past August....and I've been running trail cams for close to twenty years. Virtually all of our does are bred between Oct-Dec. And the deer are generally healthy. The bucks that I have been able to track from 2-3, or 3-4, that had poor antlers...some of them were pigs in the body, and none ever seemed to improve much. So is it worth it to save 4 that will never improve much, to keep one that might? Here's an example, I could have shot this buck around the time the first photo was taken, don't know what became of him: [/QUOTE]
