Welcome to the board You mentioned something that I agree with 100%.

you would be surprised by how many people over estimate their deer by FAR!.
We also weigh the majority of our deer, and have been for about 15 years. I know how much our deer weigh.
It's always amazed me, that all the guys I know in my area (but don't hunt with) kill deer that avg 150lbs dressed. It's funny how they always tell us "our deer are small". LOL, they hunt the same general areas, and the deer avg the same all over. Yeah you get the rare exception for sure...but not often where I hunt. The majority of folks out there would be extremely humbled by a $40 scale.
