A buddy of mine lived in AL while he was doing pilot pre-qual checks at Ft. Rucker. If I remember correctly, he said he could shoot two deer a day - a buck and a doe - and they were tiny. A fully antlered buck was under 100 lbs.

Yeah my dad's family is from Tampa and he said somewhere down there it was like 6 deer a year no more than two in a day or something like that. This deer looks grey like a coues deer would look to me.

That fully antlered bucks below 100# is completely FALSE lol, maybe he saw one like that. Bama's smaller sized bucks are near the coast and are probably averaging 125-160# Bigguns  are 175-215#.

Well, my friend was trustworthy and he called them dog-sized deer. He did live in Mobile.

Maybe so, but he never weighed them. I grew up just north of Mobile and killed over 150 bucks in Alabama and never a 100# racked buck. I grew up hunting N mobile county, the black belt, and near Rucker/Enterprise.  Definitely not mountain bucks down there. One cool thing is the Black belt actually has a Michigan strain of whitetail that was transplanted there.

Interesting. Maybe its more common than I realize but the antler configuration looks more blacktail/muley.

Skinned and gutted maybe. I have seen labradors bigger than that.

It's interesting what everyone thinks of its size but I feel some of you are misjudging it. This deer is tiny!
