ORIGINAL: DougE

BT,dominant breeding was supposed to occur and keep the younger bucks out of the picture as much as possible.This would allow the younger bucks to conserve more energy and go into winter in better shape.It sounds good on paper but the truth is,whitetail breeding is still a mystery.I've read studies where the biggest bucks never breed and otherstudies that show 1.5 year old bucks breed as many does as other age classes.Alt was full of crap,nodoubt about.Regardless,he never claimed the size of our 2.5 year old bucks would increase.When you testify for the USP,do yourself a favor and leave that part out.
Just to clarify DougE... When you address your postto BT Am I correct when I assume you mean Beenthere/Blueburd/deadeer/ddear? I certainly hope so[&:]
