Yr 1 of selective harvest didn't net any mature bucks, as expected. We had gone 5 years with the "brown it's down" philosophy, and last year it all came to a head when we took 6 bucks off the land, when only 1 of them was a mature wall-hanger. Everyone agreed that it was time to put in place some rules for harvest so we can continue to see those monster bucks we know the land can produce.
Fair amount of activity this weekend, everybody had action in front of their stands. Like last year, a lot of buck movement, in fact, we only saw one mature doe, which Jonnie harvested. Dominant buck on the land appears to be a tall rack 6pt with good potential, appropriattely named Lucky, as he would have been hanging under previous years rules. Multiple sightings of spikes, forks and 6pts...nothing bigger though.
