Sound like more then I got off two deer over the last few days. Didn't weigh it but got about 1.5 quart baggies worth.

Congratulations to you and your family for your accomplishments.

Normally I would not get much fat off of deer here with the exception of one season I was invited to hunt in a huge river bottom behind the Mississippi River Levee in Tunica Ms. Those deer were loaded in fat! I was amazed as I had never seen so much fat on deer.

I have seen inch thick down the back but that is not normal here.

The other person who does a lot of hunting is Iddee. IDK if he's really gone but he can give you some good tips too if you need more. Maybe he'll join that thread.

Yes you are correct. He would be a good teacher: I hope he will help Member.

I shot a deer here on my property that had more fat on it than my 1000 pound buffalo had and I?m not exaggerating.
My neighbor was feeding/fatting up the deer for almost a year. He was not happy when he found out that I got it.
