Need to cull that buck.... If he don't this year, he will eventually kill other deer fighting during the rut, including your big ones.... One killed two good bucks on our bama lease till we killed him.

Those are the longest spikes I have ever seen, I would say at least 12".

I'd cull that buck. An interesting rack to say the least. All of the bucks pictured make me think of venison steaks, venison jerky, or canned venison. Mmmmm...

Being that there are no antler restrictions in Ohio, you can harvest that buck. It only states that an antlered deer is a deer with 3" or more of antler. He should be good eating, as young as he is. lol
