Very nice! Looks great.

Keep it up guys it will come. Ask me how I know lol. Either way its a day in the woods together and that's the nice part.

Great job Chris congrats!

Awesome! memories is what its all about congrats to everyone.

Yeah what's in the pic is what I got back. I don't normally worry about what I'm getting back. But that was the biggest deer I ever shot. And I know what I got from a lot smaller deer in the past. Certainly don't mind paying a butcher. But I do expect to get back what I'm supposed to get back. I'm just going to chalk it up to lesson learned. Thanks again folks

Oh yeah plus I like beer alot! Thanks again folks

Thanks Hunter24, I have butchered my own before( not the best at it lol). But life sometimes makes it hard to do your own. But I just may have to go back to doing it and learning to do specialties on my own.

Hey folks, listen I'm asking for my own reference for the future. $150 bucks isn't cheap for processing without specialties except sausage. I'm not here to accuse processors of scamming. I just thought it would bring me more than I got back. Thanks for all the responses. Now I know for the future.

If what you folks say holds true her's my calculations, 160x1.28= 204 live weight 204x40% =81.6lbs

The dressed weight was 160

Hi folks how much meat in lbs would one expect from a 150lb deer. Only asking because I had a 160lb deer processed. I recieved 39lbs of meat back. Sausage straps stew chop meat and roasts. I thought that was low but I'm not a butcher and could be wrong. Mind you it was clean pass thru shot no meat damage . Thank in advance

Hi folks looking for a quad preferably a Polaris. A least 700 cc Please no junk this is a gift for my son. Thanks

Same here, we hunt 700 acres in Wayne county usually 6 of us. Usually only pull a buck or two each year. Our cameras are showing a lot of small bucks, small amount mature shooters only a few slammers. We practice only taking mature deer. I personally have not brought home a buck in 4 years. Certainly not to the lack of effort. I usually hunt 10 of the 12 days. Seems like a lot bow hunters in my area. Being that you can only take one buck between rifle and bow season. Maybe hunters are choosing to hunt the rut with a bow. This may attribute to the low numbers I'm not sure. But I don't see much of a difference in opportunities from years ago .

I'll take the suit if I can pick it up in a few weeks on my way to our cabin for Pa rifle season Thanks Roy

Awesome buck! Any idea how much that slob weighed?
