So how damn many 3 yr olds can this state kill??? Seems like it's gonna be a lot. Most kill pics posted are 3. I know the true killers don't post old deer or any deer but damn this state kills a bunch of future good deer

Hunting public land, I'll highly likely take a 3 year old.

We only shoot age and we kill big mature deer consistently. I’m not saying we kill a lot because it takes time and discretion and patience. As a strict club rule we aren’t allowed to post pictures of the deer we kill. Lost lips sink ships.

257.....we are light years behind others in management goals for our deer. Here in Alabama, I believe 99% of hunters think a 3 yo is a mature deer. As you probably know, when you go to Texas, Iowa, Kansas, etc...the mindset is just different. I guess it really depends on your goals. I will say, it will surprise most how big they will get even in this state if you let them get to 5 years old. Most people just can’t pass them up. I also worry about the mindset of slaughtering all the does. Have seen first hand the negative impact of shooting to many does.
Hunting brings out the worst in people.

I killed a 2 year old the other day. 257, not everyone owns countless acres of prime farmland where they can consistently see 20 deer in a sit. Some of us hunt places that we could be kicked off of tomorrow and feel pretty good if we even see a deer when we go. We have to take what is given. I’d gladly kill a 3 year old 8 point tomorrow and it would be the biggest buck I’ve killed in 2 years. Just be thankful for what you have and don’t worry about what everyone else does.

Loose lips sink ships....
There is 2 different high fence. 1 small and one big! Mine was free range in the big pen and was not a breeder buck. Why does it have to be twisted around??

The state needs to put a regulation that you can’t kill a buck unless it’s five years or older. Three does per hunter. Alabama would be the richest hunting state because we would have trophy bucks that people would pay to come hunt. Most out of townees wouldn’t kill much cause they don’t know how to hunt them but would bring a lot of money into al and keep our bucks protected. Let them grow you don’t know they will grow an afro

If you've ever seen a 5 or 6 yr old buck, they're built like a yearling steer and their legs look so short it looks like they've been cut off at the knees. There is no mistaking them, even a 4 yr old doesn't look like them Not so fast. Totally depends on location and varies from deer to deer. A lot of skinny southern deer could live and die of old age and look very similar from age 2 to whenever. We killed a lot of bucks in the Tombigbee River area that would age 5+, weigh anywhere from 130-175 lbs, and have anything from twisted cowhorn spikes to 115” 8’s.

I don't shoot one unless it gets my heart pumping. It may be a 2 yr old 8, a 4 pt or a 5 yr old 12 pt. If I want to shoot it I will.
Would walk over a naked woman to get to a gobblin turkey!
