Heaviest deer you have taken?

66chevelle · 10-13-2009

I shot a 135lb field dressed doe which was the biggest doe I have taken. A lot of my buddies have told me that's a huge doe but a few guys here at work said thats not that big. So it make me wonder what is your heaviest field dressed deer? Please tell us the sex and what it was taken with (bow, shotgun, handgun, muzzleloader, car, four-wheeler) you may laugh about the four-wheeler but my buddy hit and killed a small doe 4 years ago when we were riding?

I have had a doe that field dressed at about 140 lbs. I think that is a pretty good sized doe. Biggest buck for me was about 200 lbs, 8 point.

238 eight point when I lived in Terre Haute. I shot him near Riley with a Mossberg 12 guage. His neck looked like a bulldog and is mounted on the wall in my Mancave.

Shot a 10ptr w/ a muzzleloader 4 yrs ago that went 200 lbs dressed. Shot a 10ptr W a muzzleloader 2 yrs ago that went 190 dressed. Darned thing was both racks looked almost identical.

I really can't say as we don't have to weigh them any more when checking in. I did however shoot a doe with rifled barreled 12 gauge Mossberg shotgun. Feild dressed it was all I could do to load it dressed in the back of a full sized pickup. I took it to Rance's Deer Processing, north of Lake Ciccott, to check it in. They weighed it there on their scales at between 200 and 205 lbs!

I'll go on to say this doe had spent the summer eating corn & alfalfa. And it never had to move more than a hundred yards to get corn, alfalfa, water, or shelter (tree line).
