Default RE: Spikes....do you kill them or let them walk?

Let them walk! We've got a 2,500 acre lease in north west Arkansas. When we first got the lease the buck / doe ration was way out of wack and we were seeing quite a number of spikes.

Right from the get go we implemented a "4 pts on one side rule", focused on getting the doe population under control, and started planting food plots. Now we seldom see any spikes. The young bucks we see now are generally 4 pts or small basket rack 6 pts.
