You Won’t Believe the Incredible Weight of This 8-Point Buck!
Once up on the driveway, I had to detach the deer and drag it to a suitable photo spot. Man, was that thing heavy! Then I had to drag it over to my deer hanger for processing. I knew I was going to get plenty of meat from this one! But, dragging that thing was a chore!
One habit I’ve adopted is to weigh my deer before butchering them to get an idea of just how much meat I’m getting in proportion to actual body weight.
I have a hanging scale that I attach between the deer hanger and the deer so I can hoist the deer up and get the weight. I attached the scale and hauled the deer up. Angela and I were both still panting from the excitement of my bringing home such a nice buck to fill the freezer. It’s actually only my third buck since I started hunting them five years ago, and by far my best yet.
