Nij,
Was actually hunting private land, but there is public land around. Do some searching in google earth. I think you can figure it out if you put a little effort into it. As for heavy, he is pretty average for heavy. This one (see first attached pic) is a lot heavier. Also saw 2 bigger bucks while I was there, but alas, I saw them after the trigger pull, so they are still running around getting bigger for next year.
I hope to bone him out tonight, but he'll yield a good amount of meat. One that I got several years ago yielded 98 lbs of trimmed meat going into the freezer (see 2nd attached picture). Lots of good eats on that deer.
