RE: spike bucks
my cousin neal recently harvested amature spike (about 11 inches and 5 1/2 yrs old). im not sure if hes made offspring, but im prepared to take them out. i also shot a 6 pt. last yr about 6 yrs old and 210 lbs. his brow tines were shorter than an inch! but his main beams and T1 tines are enormous. his spread is barely outside each ear. my guess is not genes, i think its because of malnutrition.
