558 - DEER STUDY: Do Bucks Have Bad Genetics in Your Area?

This week we are excited to cover another study from Mississippi State! This time we are covering the topic of deer genetics in a very interesting study MSU performed to find out whether or not some areas are just doomed to have small bucks with bad genetics. You can read the study for yourself here. Subjects include:

Genetics vs Nutrition

Looking at the habitat on a property to determine if it can grow deer to their full potential

"Nature vs Nurture" when it comes to growing big bucks

Ways to improve your habitat on a lease or hunting club
