The rack was also huge(no idea what it scored but it was much bigger than any deer I've ever seen dead or alive) but the guy who killed it told me he didn't intend to mount it, and that he didn't even care if he got the antlers back. So that makes me think it wasn't all that uncommon. I know I took a picture of it myself, and if I can find the pic I will try to figure out how to post it


Was that 248lbs live weight or field dressed?


Live weight. I weighed it before I knocked the guts out of it.


I found the picture. I will send it to someone if they'd like to post it. I haven't really bothered to figure out how to post pictures.

Weighed another one today out the same stand. 190 lbs 9 pt.

I just got a set of a scales a couple years ago at my house/walk in cooler. Just to see what the weights are. People always ask what a deer weighed. I honestly have never cared.

218 field dressed is a white face beef.

In 1975 I killed a 8 point that weighted 245 live weight and i think it was 1980 I killed a 6 point that went 235 live weight. My son was 14 when he killed an 8 point that weighted 215 in 1999.
My two deer were killed during the heyday of soybeans being farmed all around Wilcox County. I now consider anything over 200 pounds exceptional deer for us eating nothing but plants and acorns in the woods.

Ooops, I thought for sure you were talking field dressed on that 218. I figured there were deer in the Bankhead area that big and bigger.
