RE: Wisconsin Deer Fat
The buck I shot in northern Wis. didn't have any fat. But most of his front teeth were busted out. The busted teeth was a fairly new wound. It must have been tough for him to eat. He was long but looked lean. He still weighed 179#

RE: Wisconsin Deer Fat
thats weird - im in northern ohio went to one of the local deer camps after gun season to help em butcher.
the deer this year had lots and lots of fat 2 1/2-3 in thick on several does/bucks. these guys have butchered deer this same place for well over thirty years and they said never have they saw it like this before ?
