Anyone with the least bit of common sense would realize that a 1.5 6 or 8 pt. has expressed greater genetic potentual for rapidly developing big racks than a 1.5 spike. All the studies show that it takes the 1.5 spike 2 or 3 years to equal the 1.5 6 or 8PT., so that fact by itself makes the spike ,on average the inferior buck.
To use your words:
WRONG!!
Studies show a buck doesnt reach its full potential until 3.5 to 5.5 and that a 1.5 spike can have equal or better genes than some 1.5 8 points.
