RE: Good and Bad genetics
Dispersal, which isthe manner in which most bucks relocate toa new core area at 1.5 years, plays a huge factor in herd genetics and is nature's method of balancing andenhancing genetics and preventing in-breeding. The large majority of 1.5 y/o bucks won't be on the property next season anyway, so "culling" them will have virtually no effect on herd genetics.
