If you spent a fraction of the time you spend crunching , twisting and perverting the numbers on some honest to God scouting and time learning about your quarry, maybe you wouldn't have a problem finding a mature buck
I don't have a problem finding a mature buck, they are in my woods every year until hunting season. Then they are on the neighbors posted ground. Furthermore, putting another rack on the wall means very little to me at this point in time. I hunt for the fun of it, not to prove anything to anyone.
You can't provide one example where I twisted and preverted the numbers and you can't provide one study that shows that AR increases the antler size on 2.5 buck. But, Dr. Kro;;'s study supports my claim that the average 2.5 buck saved by AR will have a smaller rack since it takes the average 1.5 spike 2 or 3 years to catch up with the average 1.5 , 6 or 8 pt.
