How much did that deer weigh, he looks like a yearling steer?

Friend Joe,

Surprisingly, that is one of the very few deer I've taken in from the bush ungutted. It was so frickin' cold that Jason and I threw him into the truck and gutted him in the shed with two space heaters blowing on us. yes we did weight him on a feed scale, just for kicks and giggles.

Weight, guts feathers and all = 378 pounds

I'd suppose that the hanging carcass would weight somewhere around 200 and the meat only at less than 100. Something like that
