how many pounds...

[Dustin07]

I'd be interested in knowing what the final weight of meat is on average for your deer. after boning, etc, just curious how many lbs on average of actual meat you guys harvest. if you could say what kind of deer it is as well as the weight that would be great

54 pounds largest blacktail taken here.

57 pounds whitetail 4X4 WT Saskatchewan buck.

[coachcw]

60 on average

[jaymark6655]

96 with bone, 36 without

Probably would of had more if rib meat wasn't completly ruined and I thought an arrow would be better than a rifle in this area, guess I was wrong.

57 pounds whitetail 4X4 WT Saskatchewan buck.

57 lbs of meat on a Saskatchewan WT?  Is this like only the straps and quarters?

I take everything, I even scrape off with a sharp spoon and I almost always get 90 lbs of meat of a WT buck.  I've noticed that my carcasses have less meat than most hunters' though.  I also get a bunch more sausage out of mine 

Even on does, I've taken 50 lbs of meat.

I know, I was surprised as well.  Nice looking deer, the outfitter said he was only a 2 year old.  I take everything I can off of them.

I only eat the heart but will sometimes save the liver for crab bait or give it to someone that will eat it.

I misread this at first and though you said you use the heart for crab bait, I thought "WHAT?!"

The heart is tasty stuff, best sandwich meat.  I need to switch to bowhunting so I can stop destroying it though.

Biggest WT I ever killed yielded 108 lbs, all meat no bones.  The biggest muley was about 110-115 all boned out.  But those were HUGE deer.  The WT was 240 gutted (and yes, it was weighed).  That muley was probably close to 300 on the hoof.  It broke my portable meat pole.
