According to the published book "Deer of North America", the largest mule deer ever recorded was shot in 1938 by Lauren Rowe near Ellens Park, CO. The buck dressed out at 410 pounds so using the standard .1275 figure, the deer weighed 522.75 lbs. live weight.

California's Northern Sierra mountains have also been known to historically produce extremely large mule deer, especially between the 1920's and 1960's. In several cases "barren" does (naturally sterile), have tipped the scales at weights exceeding 400 lbs. This large body weight is likely due to both genetics of mule deer in the region as well as the does lacking the stresses of pregnancy and seasonal nutrient loss thereof.
