I recently made my first kill, first cleaning, and butchered my first deer and was currious if there is a ratio to determine the amount of meat you can expect from a deer by it's weight or vice versa, take the anmount/weight of processed meat and calculate the size of the deer? In case anyone wants to know - 16 yrd shot, 20" bolt, 1 3/8" broadhead, 150lbs draw weight cross bow - frontal lower neck shot, penetrating 7", dropped it where it stood. I know I could have done a better job of butchering and I'll have proper/better equipment next time, just wondering if the is a way to "rate" my first experience in butchering.
Thanks
