#7 P&Y in Oregon at the time I killed him. I couldn't drag it whole, so I halved it. No head, hide, or guts it weighed 107. Live weight, anybody?

Fireball beautiful buck! Here's the formula I used for Huntsman's buck. This is meant for estimating:

"Hanging Weight" X 1.33 ='s Dressed Weight;

Dressed Weight X 1.26 ='s Live weight


I would assume "hanging weight" to be gutted, head/hide off/legs off at knees. We might also call this "hog dressed"?


I've never seem those number's used before. What would that make live weight? I have always added 60% to the hanging weight. That's skin off, head off and bottom of the legs off. Using that, the deer in question would be just over 170#. If I figured it right.
