thanks all!
Izzy - did nt weight him, but girth (dressed) was 44" and my processor and I both agree well over 200. he is wide, well fed deer.
good thing i got my deer when i did. this morning i managed to break and chop the tip off my ring finger of my right hand getting it in the wrong place on the tractor. back on now, less a nail, but i wont be drawing a bow for some time.
prognosis is good, but i have to now see a plastic surgeon and arthro. surgeon to make sure it takes and the nail grows back correctly.
dumb, dumb, dumb. oxycodone don't fix stupid.
