RE: big doe pic
 

people use this same old trick to make their fish look bigger.just look at the size of the deer compared to the bow.it appears normal size and not that big.where does it have anything to do with texas. a deer is a deer.a good deer is a good deer period.the bow is laying against the deer and looks normal size.the hands appear larger due to person sitting back.it is still a good deer but just normal and not that big.

Wow, you really need to get of Texas and hunt a little bit in the midwest if you don't think there is a difference in deer

deer up north get that way....big deer.........you wanna no why....corn fed.........congrats on the kill.......the pic.....looks fine to me.......i've seen big deer up north....i've got kin folk in illinois....monster deer...plan on going bowhunting there next year.......;)

RE: big doe pic
 

that is not what i said. i said a good deer is a good deer.the pic clearly shows that the deer is normal size when you compare it to the bow.the body of deer here is usually smaller but the racks are just as big

RE: big doe pic
 

they are fed corn here also. corn alone does not make them grow larger.many of the areas that hold deer are pretty bare here/supplemental feeding is what keeps the healthy.north had more available food than here

RE: big doe pic
 

The doe is obviously a mature animal that living in "cornfed" country has put on some pounds. I do believe the weight guess of 160+. I mean, yes the pic at first glance does make the animal look larger then life but you can tell proportion wise compared to the bow and his body that the camera angle is a off. BUT when you compare the fact that the doe isn't much longer then the bow you realize that it isn't a "horse", just a big mature doe for the midwest. Congrats on the mature deer, and don't let folks on the forums get your panties in a wad. Everyone is entitled to their own opion. ;):D For comparison this is one of the does I took this past season, she dressed 130#. They certainly look alot smaller when they aren't propped up though, still a nice pic however.

Very nice doe! Excellent kill, congrats!

The picture looks fine to me also. You're sitting behind the bow and the deer so naturally it's going to look a little bigger than you will. Still and excellent deer!

RE: big doe pic
 

that is without a doubt a big a$$ doe. i used to hunt in northwest missouri, and i shot one two years ago that dressed out at 135 and last year shot one that dressed out at 124. so does can get pretty big boys and girls. especially if they get to live longer than the bucks.

cfdjay,

That is a very nice doe no matter how you look at it. Don't pay attention to dep214, he is just an old cynical fart that has trouble playing with others. Your not the first person on this sight he has refered to as being a lier.

RE: big doe pic
 

Hey cfdjay that is one nice size doe. I would guess that doe weighed anywhere over 180 pushing 200 lbs. That is one big deer. Congratulations buddy.
