[QUOTE="TX300mag, post: 4528413, member: 1683"] 20 years ago culling was the "thing." Maybe not in TN, but in other places. During this time we've learned more through trial and error. Culling is still practiced on intensively managed herds in Texas (mainly high fence) but NOT on 2.5 year old bucks. These bucks are culled as 5.5 year-old 8 points for example. There are still plenty shooting spikes in less intensive programs but IMO that is a compromise (excuse) that makes hunters feel better about shooting a buck. The most accurate definition of a cull buck: a buck that will never be a big buck because he'sDEAD. :D A management buck is the only buck I could "manage" to kill. :) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk [/QUOTE]
