Average Dressed weight - 1.5 to 2.5 year old buck in your area?

[farm hunter]

What is the average 1.5 - 2.5 year old buck's dressed weight for your area? Bucks only, please do not post doe weights.

If you are not sure of the weight - please do not guess.

Were your average weights down this year in your area?

Thanks

Around here most seem to be in the 130's, we heve gotten a few over 150 and an odd one or two in the last ten years over 200.

Got a 5 pt this year that weighed 95 dressed, and he was big for a young deer.

I checked the 120 to 140 lbs. box for the 1.5 year olds in my area, which is northern Ill. and southern Wis. 2.5 usually go from 145 to 165 lbs.

thats hard to say cause thats a wide range.
Ive seen 1 1/2 yr old go 75 lbs and Ive seen 2 1/2 go 150 lbs

Little bit of a guess. We weigh all of the deer not gutted.

I would have to say between 130&160 being the average weight around here. Now u get in northern Pa. take 20 to 30 pounds off

In Mn a 2 yr old buck is going to go about 150lbs.

1.5-year oldsaverage 110 lbs.

2.5-year olds average138 lbs.

That's if I am aging them correctly.

It varies from deer to deer. I took a 1.5 3pt last year that dressed at 150. Then this year I took a 1.5 5 pt that only went 115.

Note: First was taken 10-4 and the other was 12-22. So I have a feeling the rut / winter had something to do with it.

On average...I'd have to say around 135 up here in NW PA.
