I think we can all agree, a buck is 2.5 y/o, when he has his first decent rack, and this is the age of most rack buck kills across the state. Maybe not on your club, but across most of the state. Most yearlings are spikes or 4 pts. So with 2.5 y/o being the first real rack a deer has, and makes up most of the racked buck deer harvest, then that is the deer we need to be talking about. The 2.5 y/o bucks on our place average 140-150lbs and sport 80-100" at best.
