Bad Genetics????
Do you think this is a case of bad genetics or what? This is at one of my hunting spots. Are these examples of a buck that should be taken down? BTW these are pictures from last season....The first buck has a 3 point right side and a small spike on the left side. The other 2 pics are of the same deer and as you will see its crap as well. Tell me what you guys think bout it.

Funny Rack -
But Both are young bucks - can't blame it on bad Genes yet.
I think its a big mistake to discuss culling any deer that are less than 3.5 years old. I'd say its both buck's 1st rack - and multiple points are a GOOD sign in most areas. The last one is a distinctive Rack - it'll be interesting to see what he might look like this year at 2.5 years old if he's still around.

Its hard to say when they are that young (1 1/2) I also see alot of young bucks similar to that, but i also see bucks with great racksin the same area's as well, that have absolute awesome racks!! Time will tell if they make it that far.
