No idea on what he weighed. His neck was nearly as large as his chest.

It took 3 of us to hoist him up on the meat pole

Thanks, all!!

.270, 150 grain Remington softpoint from Walmart. 35 yard broadside, shredded the top 1/3 of the heart. He was considerate enough to run 35 yards up the hill before he lost hydraulics

Very nice. I think im about to start looking into out of state hunts, just too many states with great deer to hunt only in Tejas

I have some experience weighing northern deer, I can't see yours well enough to guess, but the one on the left will go about 180.

Nice big buck. Congratulations. Plenty of meat on him for sure.

The taxidermist doing the Euro mount told me that the buck aged at 4 years old, which makes him ancient where we hunt.
