Default RE: Avg. Deer weight

Here in Missouri, (north west) I'd say the avg. was around 150 lbs. We commonly have deer taken each year in the 240 lb. range field dressed. My best friend shot a 160" class green scored 8 pointer just this past rifle season that went 241 lbs. on a certified scale. I would imagine that it all depends on the area you are asking about.
Agricultural(?) states like Kansas, Iowa, Missouri, Illinois, ect. tend to have bigger bodied deer than states like Texas and so on.

Here in the southern tier of NY they can vary. I'd say most go about 140-150lbs. We do get some over 200lbs though

In Va. deer vary drastically in size, in the mountains your average buck may only dress out at 90-100 pounds, where as if you get down in the tidewater area the average buck dresses at about 140-150, my cousin killed one that dressed at 210! I killed a little 4 point yesterday that I would guess dressed at about 85-90, very small for where I hunt in Va.

In NW NJ where we hunt the avg dressed weight of bucks has been between 105-120 for the last several yrs now. In fact, it seems to be headed down towards 95-100 for some reason in my ZOne.

I hunted ILL and the deer all avg over 150 and we shot 2 bucks that dressed at 190 and 210.

Looking at the world from 15 feet up.

I would estimate that the average field dressed weight of Wisconsin deer would be around 100 to 120#. There are some alot bigger and some a lot smaller.

I would say that the bucks that I've seen taken in my area avg between 110-120#'s. There is a very popular deer area not far from me (Llano) where they run smaller. South Texas is famous for big deer, and East Texas has those big Piney Woods deer. Depends on where you hunt.

Where I hunt the average live weight of a deer will be around 200lbs.I only harvest mature bucks and the average live weight of my deer would be around 275 to 300 lbs.

At least. Canadian deer are big, eh?
The doe I got this year (had to) weighed about 180 dressed.
