Default RE: "Cull buck" thoughts

ORIGINAL: Washington Hunter

I consider the buck I shot this year a cull deer.

You may dislike the term, but he was bad for the gene pool.

He had two points on one side, four on the other.

The side with two points was not only taller but had more mass than the side with four points.

He was a cull deer. I was proud to shoot him, but that doesn't change the fact that he had weird genetics.

I agree. Any deer that does not fit the typical genetic form as you stated could be due to a gene problem. It you be due to diet etc. but my guess is that there are other good examples of deer in the area so nutrients would not be the cause. Cull him out.
