RE: any blacktail hunters out there
 
I've found that Sitka blacktails are about the same size as whitetails back in NY. I've seen bruisers that will go over 200#'s in both places but an average buck will weigh in about 150-175. Our blacktails tend to be shorter and stockier than a whitetail but just as big.

Would you happen to be from NY? Reason being, once when I was showing my dad something on the forum, he saw your name in your sig, and remembered a guy w/ the same name.
