Hunting oppurtunies on the East Coast

OK I am waiting for the guy who cut meat for twenty years to make a meaningful reply about deer size............. He just might have an idea about deer body size.......

All I have to say is wait till next fall and see the deer they post here on CGN from Sask and Alta compared to the ones shot here in the Maritimes. There are big deer here, but the ones out west are bigger and quite a few more in numbers. Seems to me that the world record deer was shot in Sask.

Also, the mule deer I saw in Grande Prairie and Peace River were huge.
