A very Fine animal Mike!! Congrats again and way to get it done!!

Appreciate the kind compliment. It means allot Keith. Thanks for the encouragement, e-mail correspondence, and phone calls helping me to understand those wily bucks and the country they live in. If I can do it ANYONE can!

Ken and I weighed all the meat, bones, hide, head and scraps. The only thing we guessed was the gut pile and organs which we arbitrarily decided was 60# pounds. That PISS WALLOPER weighed 315# pounds !!!!!!
Waaaaaaaaaay more than I GUESSED. Which was 260# pounds. Facts and data brother, facts and data!

Mike

I'd be real interested in hearing what that translates into in terms of meat! I always weigh my meat but have never weighed anything else. I could do some back calculating!

The edible portion of meat came to 105# LBS. That's about 15 pounds more than I thought it would be. I suspect 90# LBS. is normal for most LARGE mule deer bucks across the intermountain west. But wadda hell da I know?
