He looks 230 at least, to me. I know it's hard to tell from pictures, tho'.

That is a mighty handsome looking deer. All the big Georgia deer I have ever seen were good looking animals.

A few pictures from our annual out of state trip. This one was to Kansas, ended up being a father-son trip, from two different families. This was the first trip for my son. Birds were smart and the weather went to crap, but still a worthy trip...

Nice big animal but I wouldn't think over 200 lbs.

I was going to say 200-205 hog dressed, having weighed a few in that size range. And that is a very large whitetail buck. A butcher shop near me advertises a free basic cut and wrap for any deer dressing out over 200 lbs. I'm certain they don't have to butcher many for free.


A true sign of mental illness is any gun owner who would vote for an Anti-Gunner like Joe Biden.

Chad-

Good camera work. My son was a little younger when we started chasing roosters together in Kansas. Great memories, and kudos for making and capturing your own.

You can estimate live, field dressed, and butchered weight of a deer from its girth behind the shoulders. You can google for the formula or you can look up the Pennsylvania Game Commission and purchase one of their calibrated tape measures for about a dollar.

The same method is also used for other species as well. Some measures require nose to tail base length, but most ungulates are just girth.

Thanks for that info. I may have to purchase one of those tapes.

They are kind of fun. I shot two 240 lb (live weight) does a few years ago. Huge things. Without the tape, I'd have never guessed.
