the hoof one, which I think they are wrong on.
I got it right but I believe they are wrong. I got 12/13 because I missed he cull question because if I saw a buck with screwed up antler yes I would take it out. I didn't even read the rest of the answers.
Now to the hoof question. If you will look at every buck you kill regardless of size you will see that the front foot is always wider than the back. It's not the same for does, theirs are the same size.

I think the point of the hoof question was mainly based on the presence of the dew claw. Obviously a wide and longer track belongs to a large deer while a short and narrow track belongs to a smaller deer. It's safe to say, due to averages, that you have more does on your property than mature bucks. So it's only reasonable that a large track will more than likely belong to a mature buck. However, a 1.5 year old buck will have a similar track to that of a doe.

Wrong.
Bucks arent born with wider hooves. They become wider as the buck gains weight. Large does will also have wider hooves.
Now bucks can have overall larger hooves, but there is no way to tell for sure what sex a deer is from their track. You can make an educated guess on larger hoof prints, but again does can and do sometimes have large hooves.
