Default Got some pics on my cam. How much does she weigh?

Just curious, how much yall think this deer probably weighs. I got a few pics on day 2 of my camera being in my woods and wonder if its bigger than my first. I'm still hoping for that buck to turn up but I might just take another doe if it means more meat in the freezer. My first doe my first day hunting was 78lbs. I've passed up on every other doe I've seen cause they appeared to be smaller than 100lbs. What do you think about this one?

Just noticed that. Her right front does appear to be a peg leg.

I wouldn't say she's very big at all, it's neary impossible to give you a reliable estimate though, with nothing to put the animal to scale in the photo.

There is something weird about her right front leg, just above her knee ???

since your in Alabama I would not kill this doe. Because the rut is almost ready to kick in. This is just another doe to lure that big bama buck in. unless you want to fill the freezer.
