I would say about 130 to 150 lbs, but this would depend on what type of ground the track is in, sand, snow, mud, etc.
Well, you just never know. In 1980, I shot the largest elk I've ever seen. It was a massive six point (one side count) that probably tipped the scales at nearly a thousand pounds on the hoof. Absolutely unbelievable monster. What was really unbelievable is that this bull threw a small track with NO dew points. In fact, I followed it only hoping that it might be a spike (the bare minimum legal "bull" in those days). I actually had the front feet mounted for a gun rack because I was sure no one would ever believe it.
I like Ontario's advise. You never know.
