220-something Ohio 3.5 year old buck. I don't have any digital pics of it but it had the longest legs of any deer I have ever seen. The buck I shot this year and is posted in the contest was over 200, but I don't remember the exact weight. All I know is he hurt my back getting him into the truck bed... LIFT WITH YOUR LEGS.

My 2006 buck dressed 267lbs, weighed on scales at the meat locker. But he hada lot of fat on him, since I harvested him before the rut. When he was walking, his body would jiggle. lol

I shot a buck this year that was 230 on the money. He had already dropped his rack and this was the middle of Dec. I sure wish I could have shot him in the pre-rut I would have loved to have seen his rack and I bet he was a good 260. these weights were hogg dressed.

For all you folks that weight them live weight.... here's a pretty good guide for what they'd weigh after dressing.

My biggest was this past seasons 186# dressed. I cannot imagine those 200+ deer. This one was a tank, and didn't even break 200.
Biggest doe is just shy of 140# dressed. All from western PA.

You're welcome Davepir71. I got it from a shop here in town about 20 years ago and have hung onto it. I covered up their name because it wasn't MY PRO shop. LOL I think their edible meat figure must be scraping and using ever sliver that's red. Other than my brother, I don't know to many people that recover that much. As I like to say, he eats every thing except the hoofs.
