When my wife picked up my deer from the butcher two years ago the guy laughed when she asked if she needed to back the truck up to his shop to load it up.

hunter4life Report post Posted November 2, 2011 An interesting article I just looked up on the internet. It has the formulas you asked for in it. It would say to multiply the field dressed weight by 1.28 to get the live weight. http://www.butcher-packer.com/index.php?main_page=document_general_info&cPath=36&products_id=331 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
