Default RE: Average size of Deer and Largest

bushman,

I hunt about 1 hr south of Monroe. About 10 years ago, I killed a 4pt that weighed over 200 lbs.

But in the past 5 years my brother and I have hunted around Enterprise and the average dressed weight of our deer would be around 70 - 80 lbs. And we typically kill 4-7 (combined) each year.

On our current club, I killed a six point that weighed 110. My brother has killed an 11pt (bow) and a 5 pt (rifle) that weighed around 140 each.

This year so far, I have killed two does and he has killed one. They all weighed between 60 and 70 lbs, completely dressed.

There are some nice deer on Tensas and I have seen some 200+ pounders up there. Missed a real good 7 point up there a few years back. I hunt in an area with lots of hills and very little for the deer to eat, so we have smaller deer. I would say the average live weight of the deer killed on our club is around 130 lbs.
