Deer Weight Table
A white-tailed deer’s live weight and dressed weight can be estimated surprisingly accurate with the Wisconsin DNR chest girth formula. Our hunting camp put the chart to the test and found it to be accurate o within just a couple of pounds. Take a tape measure and wrap it around the deer’s girth just below the front legs. Than read the tape and see the chart.
