HA! I've had dogs bigger than Texas deer! Same for Florida deer too! Now granted some of them ranch raised stock deer get pretty big but a good many of those deer owe their genetic background to a Northern Bloodline! They are naturally small in ALL hotter climates. If you see a big bodied deer in Texas (and what I call big bodied is over 210 field dressed) then you can bet your bottom dollar that deer has a northern genetic line and somewhere CLOSE.

As far as the OP question. I'm with Pete. My big butt is hitting the hills either in Pa, TN, or CO.
