Cull buck is a loosely used term not that in some instances it isn't a bad idea. Ihave only shot one deer that I thought would be inferior and when I actually got hands on him he was a very nice 1.5 year old with a broken off beam. Man I felt like a idiot. As for the deer in AP's photo that is not a cull deer in my opinion it looks more like a good 2 year old too me. Too bad he didn't get a couple more years but that is hunting. No matter what he is a nice buck and one I am sure the person was proud of.
