My biggest doe so far was this big girl who weighed in at 149lbs dressed (butchers scale) with her legs cut off. I can not tell a lie,

I killed her with my CB.

We shot a doe this past friday on my property in Michigan, It just looked big and we couldn't believe its size so we put her on the scale--174lbs dressed!! There were roughly 20 some deer all within 100 yards of us and believe it or not there was another doe that was even bigger (she was behind us--so no shot)..

Here is the biggest doe I have ever seen. My dad killed her last year on our property in Ohio. Not sure of her weight but she was huge. Had a head like a donkey! LOL!

She is probably just retaining water.
