How much did your heaviest deer weigh?

Just curious the size of some of your larger deer. My largest by weight was 230 pounds field dressed. If I can find a picture I'll post.
 
I pretty sure it was 225 field dressed.I thought that was pretty good until A friend of mine got one that I helped bring in that weighed almost 240.Man he was a lug.

dc240nt-looks like you have quite a string of heavy deer. Do you think being a little farther north helps the body size? Here is that 230 pounder.

i've never weighed a deer, there isn't time. when one is down, that means there is another to get
 
I've never weighed one either but if I were to guess I'd say that I've shot 4 bucks over 300 pounds on the hoof, no idea what they weighed field dressed, nobody weighs their deer up here. But, I've shot 4 bucks that were a real chore to drag and load, even with help,in fact I had to get help with those 4.
 
Wish we would have weighed these . . .

I believe this is the heaviest deer I've harvested - probably around 230lb - I think it had a 48" measurement behind it's front legs
 
That's no small guy behind that HAWG either

My two biggest are 218 & 220 LBS. field dressed.
 
I wonder how much a 200 pound field dressed deer's gut pile would weigh? I suppose you would have to take under consideration bleeding out also.
 
My biggest confirmed was 220# FD but in 89, I shot one with a shotgun that even in the peak of my Sr High wrestling season...I could hardly budge him.......coming from a guy that could throw around the heavyweight with no problem. I guessed him over 275????????? Just his rack, head cut off at the base of skull and cape to the shoulder weighed 45# on the bathroom scale
