Default Field Dressed Weights

Forget the antlers!!!!I was wondering how many of you weigh your deer after the harvest? I weigh my bucks before field dressing them and then after field dressing them, I started doing this back in the late 90's to keep tabs mostly for my own curiosity, I am curious as to what everyones region produces for body weights on mature whitetail bucksthat are3.5 and older. Could you guys give an average range of what your are seeing/harvesting in your home state or county/counties you hunt.

3.5 year old bucks and older here in the Idaho Panhandle that I have weighed range from 170-210 lbs ... dressed (of course later in the season makes a big difference in body weight)

Thanks, any pictures of some hawg bodied buckswould be great too!

Below is a picture of my brothers 190 +lb dressed 03 buck.
