By far the heaviest deer I've gotten both in terms of fat and meat. 80 pounds of processed meat prior to packing. (Headshot helped)
I was a tad concerned because I shot it in the bottom of a canyon and had to cut it up to get it out and obviously didn't have the lower half one would expect to accompany the upper.

Crazy!
Here's a question,
In a 3pt or better unit would a deer like this be legal?
I mean technically it's a 3 point and it doesn't say 3pt or better buck, right?

Crazy!

A legal deer taken in these GMUs must have
at least 3 antler points on one side. A 3x3, 3x2,
or 3x1 are legal in a 3 pt. min. unit. An antler
point must be at least one inch to be counted.
Antlerless:
Deer without antlers. Doe or fawn deer are
antlerless.
Any Buck:
Any deer with visible antlers may be taken
(fawns illegal)

:DOH:Many years ago the state issued doe tags for deer and cow tags for elk. Everything now is based on headgear, or lack thereof.

It's legal to shoot, but I'm curious about transporting the meat. How can you leave a testicle attached...

If a game warden had serious questions than I am quite sure they would call a wildlife biologist to identify it.
