largest live weight doe at Chaney was 175 lbs
largest live weight buck at Chaney was 220 lbs
175 lb doe is incredible. That would be a doe to mount.

My bad fellas, thought it was field dressed weight. Still 220 avg for bucks in the 5.5 age class is pretty good even if it is live weight. You can or used to be able to view it under biological data from TWRA's website. Search by county.
My two heaviest tn deer weighed 173 and 190 dressed.

I tried several weeks ago to research that very same thing. TWRA said they have no individual "weight records" for deer.
For some reason though I have stuck back in the dark hollows of my head something about reading an article years ago that said the largest (heaviest) known whitetail taken in TN came from Sumner County (around Portland) or Robertson County (maybe Orlinda) near the KY line. Right in that area.
But I tried and tried to find that article but never did.
But I do wish TWRA would start weight records just like they have for the antler inches.

My two heaviest tn deer weighed 173 and 190 dressed. Thats got to be a low number of 5.5 being taken,but I imagine 220 would be close,which works out to about a 165 fd buck.
Ridiculously low.

I took a deer 2 years ago that 230 field dressed, it was a beast, it was the only deer that I ever killed that I couldn't get on the 4-wheeler by myself, weighed it at a cotton gin on certified scales, not lying about it, I'll post a pic if you want
