Nobody is shooting those 400, 500, 600" deer. The money for the seed is too big. Use to be like $1200-$1500 a straw didn’t it? May be more now, or I may be mistaken.

Most of the breeder bucks in Alabama fall in the 250" range at 2yo and the 3yo's generally are in the 350-400" range.
That being said I have a client in North Alabama that has numerous bucks over 500" each year and he had a 650" deer that died last year of EHD.

If they grow like that what do they feed them? Steroids? Lol

If they grow like that what do they feed them? It’s genetics. Selective breeding. Nutrition helps, but that is not why they are that big.

Yep, one of my close friends had some awesome bucks and he said it was almost entirely genetics. His family got out of the business when CWD restrictions became too much of a pain.

Its a mix of genetics, breeding the right doe to the right buck, and feed.
Most folks feed high protein deer feed mixed with various supplements to keep them heathly. Also the bigger bucks generally aren't put with too many does. If they breed too many their antlers will be smaller the following year.

You mean if too many does are on the landscape and exhausting bucks with longer ruts it can negatively impact their health? No way. I’m obviously being sarcastic. This one hurdle is too high for many to overcome.
