congrats look on a aerial map and find outlets and roads around your area so if you get one that runs a mile you might be able to find a road or trail that well either get your truck closer or make for a easyer walk out

Thanks for all the comments. We put the deer on the scale at the butcher, 235 exactly. But that was gutted, completely skinned out, head and neck removed, and front legs from the elbow down cut off. I cut the head off just past the shoulders as to make sure the taxidermist could get a good measurement. I measured the neck at 32 1/2 inches where it starts to get thick right behind the ears. Granted that was with the cape still on but I pulled the cable I used to measure with a little tight to get a better measurement. To bigtim6656, I wish it was that easy, the place where I hunt is a State Fish and Wildlife Area. There are two parking spots and you have to enter and exit at those spots. No exceptions. The area where I am hunting is the farthest you can get from these two parking spots.
