RE: State Record???
You DO not have to weigh your Mass deer in at the checking stations at places like Bob's Sportsman shops but alot of them have scales anyway.
At state run check in stations manned by biologist and wardens they like to weigh them for record keeping but don't always.
Checked in a buck a couple of weeks ago at the local shop and he didn'tweigh it. He just crimped a permanent tag to the tendon on the back leg...
You will find NO record book for does in MA unless they keep records for the ones the division weighs in.

Deer have to be weighed in Oklahoma, but I don't think they keep a record book for weights. Some are weighed with guts in and some with guts out. It would be too much of a hassle to keep exact weights.
