Judging from trail camera photos from within my hunting circle around my county, every year there seems to be deer ranging between 160-190" consitantly.

I guess 3.5-4.5 years old
110-140 (just a guess)
220+ Field dressed.
My best buck to date had to weigh in well over 250 field dressed. That racks just don't get that big around here.
Here is a nice sized buck. The racks do get bigger. But he is a nice one for our area in Minnesota.

For my family farm our biggest deer is a 200 inch 18 pointer, while I would say the average for the big deer of the yearis a 4 1/2 or 140 class animal.
It kills me to see the other owner encourage the theory its brown and down. Hard to take letting a super 1 1/2 year old 9 pointer walk over the hill and get blasted by the other hunter.
