Hyde your last post is correct, but earlier you made it sound as if all basket racked bucks should be killed. Down here we try and take as many cull/management bucks as we can each year. I have a friend who manages a 10,000 acre ranch along the Mexico border, this year they will be taking 80 cull bucks and 150-250 does off of the ranch. But bucks should only by culled if they are mature and have a poor set of antlers compared to the other bucks of similar age. Personally we consider anything that is 6 1/2 years old or older that scores 145" or less a cull buck and/or anything with 9 or less points regardless of score a cull buck.
