Where in South GA is it illegal to run dogs? I thought you said the deer was killed in South Georgia.

Wingnut mind your own business you won't be mindin' mine. If you don't approve of runnin deer with dogs, DON'T DO IT. What ya'll do in Arkansas your thing.

If you want to get an idea of how big some "Southern" deer are, go to [www.publichuntingland.com] They take photos of live trophy deer on PUBLIC LAND and post the photos to that web site in the hOTSPOT section. They also post the exact GPS coordinates of where each photo was taken. They have some VERY nice deer located on PUBLIC land in ala Texas, Tennessee, and some MONSTER ELK

I lived in NC for four years. I shot five deer and the biggest was a 125lb buck. All my deer were taken on game lands, so 90 - 130 is an average on the public land. They can get up to 200 on private land. Black bears are Huge in NC compared to NH. A 835lb black bear was taken on the NC coast.

I hunt in Va. capitol of the south, depending on whether you are hunting the western or eastern part of the state the deer average between 100-150 pounds average dressed weight, my cousin killed one that dressed at 210. The western part of Va. has the smaller deer due to it being mountainous, and the eastern portion deer are larger due to farming.
