I have a question and would like some feedback please. I keep seeing and reading about taking out the old mature bucks. What I can't seem to understand is when they state better harvest him his antlers have gone down hill. Don't want him breeding the does anymore. What puzzles me is he was born with the same genetics and will die with the same genetics. If he was a stud at 4 and a rag horn at 7. What does it matter if he breeds. He's still passin on the stud genes even if he looks raggy at 7.

Must be part of the shoot all the spikes logic!!!!
