[QUOTE="megalomaniac, post: 5025783, member: 2805"] Individual mature bucks with huge racks are not any harder or easier to kill than mature bucks with inferior racks... it's just that there are 4 to 5 times more mature bucks with inferior racks alive due to high grading of each age class in the years prior to reaching maturity. So... yes, mature bucks with huge racks are harder to kill... but only because there are so few of them in a population... In fact, most years, there are very few properties that will actually have a mature buck in the top 5% genetically for antler scores. So the chance of killing one outside those properties is around ZERO% :) [/QUOTE]
