[QUOTE="BSK, post: 5048228, member: 17"] A GREAT post Mega, and the exact RIGHT way to handle true "management" bucks in a club setting. In that situation, "management" bucks are a way of creating [U]extra hunting opportunity[/U]. In situations where buck harvest criteria is very high, using bucks that will never meet the harvest standards as "bonus" bucks creates a lot of extra hunting opportunity. On large managed properties where harvest criteria are high, often few total bucks are being harvested each year, yet the property can easily sustain more total bucks being harvested. In that situation, creating "bonus" bucks can actually create a whole new focus for some hunters. I've even seen situations where individual members of a club become "professional bonus buck" hunters. They become super focused on trying to hunt the bonus bucks. This tends to "spread out" hunting pressure on the bucks that do make the club minimums, and simply creates a lot of "free" harvest opportunities. [/QUOTE]
