The past two seasons we have cleaned all of our deer. For a total of 8 deer. We quarter them and then de-bone them. The biggest deer we shot was prolly around 170 live weight, and we got about 40lbs of meat at most, and that is having the carcuss look like it had been eaten by vultures, so there is no way you will get 85lbs of meat. On average i would say you get about 1/3 of the deers weight (give or take some).
