re: Do any of you guys use a deer management program?

The simplest management program to shoot trophy bucks, is to only shoot trophy bucks. I know it sounds dumb, but it's true.
To grow big bucks, the single hardest element to manage is self control.

1 doe per 50 acres and 4 1/2 year old bucks. That is our management plan. Our weights have went up tremendously and our fawn recruitment has went up as well, we see way more does now with twins than ever before. This is year 8 in our program. We went from seeing almost no rut to a hard defined rut.

This is an issue on my club. Last year was my first year and the club's second.
2400 acres, 11 members
"Supposed" to shoot 130"+ 8pt, 140"+ 10pt
We had a fella shoot 3 bucks last year. Two of which were 110-120" and the other was his cull buck, that we've never seen a pic of.
One issue with him and a few others is even with horns in hand, they add extra inches by measuring halfway into the main beam vs the top of the beam. They were adding about 10" extra on the deer (both 8pt).
When I was saying less than 120, he and his buddy basically said I was crazy and green scored him at 125, which was 8-10" too much.
