guy brings in 5 deer Biggest 109lbs
I'd say he's got some great venison. I probably would nat have shot the 59lb one, but I've found that the 100-125lb yearling to 1.5 year old does are by far the best eating, which is why I hunt deer, to eat the meat. Anything much older or bigger doesn't taste as good and is too tough. The only thing the 175+ pounders are good for is summer sausage and landjaegers, which is expensive to have made.
