it is based on the belief that a buck wasted 4 days during peek breading chasing and courting a doe that ends up dead
Do they feel bad for the buck? I'm having trouble understanding this one. Every doe in the woods is gonna get bred by something, eventually.
If I’m at a club with superior genetic and age structure, then yes, I want the mature bucks to pass their genes on down the line.
If I’m hunting the back forty behind granny’s house, then it probably isn’t a big deal

That’s the issue, a 1.5 year old spike could have better genetics than the best buck you’ve seen. Unless you have a meticulous cull plan or are in a pen, the spikes are still going to breed some does.
To me it all comes back to ratio, no matter when you control it. If you believe it’s better to let mature bucks breed does then your first and only priority should be getting the buck to doe ratio down by any means necessary, not the time of year.
