I'll see your 250 lbs and raise you 50 pounds.Indiana produces larger, heavier whitetail bucks on average, with mature deer often exceeding 250 lbs, while North Dakota bucks typically average closer to 170 lbs. Indiana is renowned for trophy-sized bucks, including the 2021 record-setting typical buck, due to superior agriculture and habitat.

The Dakota whitetail exhibits characteristics in line with both Allen’s and Bergmann’s Rule: the first stating that the farther north and colder the habitat a species is found in the shorter extremities become (legs, tail, and ears), and of the second, animals grow heavier and exhibit less surface area the farther from the equator they are found. Dakota whitetails are regularly tagged weighing more than 300 pounds on the hoof. They also appear regularly in Pope & Young archery and Boone & Crockett all-time big-game record books. Dakota whitetails are generally lighter in hue than other whitetail species, likely due to their predominantly open habitats. The Dakota whitetail’s massive body size is a natural element of its environment, as these subspecies must survive some of the harshest winter conditions in all of North America, including deep snow, killing wind-chill factors and temperatures occasionally plummeting to less than -45 degrees F.
