re: Planting 75 sawtooth seedlings today and tomorrow

I have about 13 acres of ST in Amite County and they started producing in the 9th year. They’re 24 years old now and rain nuts every Sep/Oct. I killed a nice velvet buck in them this year during the velvet weekend. Every deer around is in them when the nuts fall. I would plant on 12-15’ spacing, then thin as required after about 10 years. They need area to crown out to optimize production.

I'm genuinely curious when I ask this, but what is the fascination with killing a velvet buck? Maybe fascination is not the way to word that, but interest. What is the interest?
I've seen where some states are opening specific seasons for velvet bucks, and it's something that I've never been able to understand. Why is a deer in velvet something that people want to hunt?
Again, I don't mean that question in any negative way, and I don't mean to get this discussion going a different direction. Just genuinely curious is all.

I am also in Amite County. We’ve had good luck with sawtooths in our neck of the woods. My dad planted some several years ago and they are doing very well.
