Pig Heart Girth Weights
Heart girth is measured in inches using a cloth measuring tape. The tape is placed directly behind the front legs, wrapped snugly around the heart girth, and read directly behind the shoulders.
Pig Weight = 10.1709 x Heart girth (inches) minus 205.7492.
Found to be 95% accurate to within 10 lbs.
Using the above formula, we get the following:
25 inches= 49 lbs. 26 inches= 59 lbs. 27 inches= 69 lbs.
28 inches= 79 lbs. 29 inches= 89 lbs. 30 inches= 99 lbs.
31 inches = 110 lbs. 32 inches= 120 lbs. 33 inches= 130 lbs.
34 inches= 140 lbs. 35 inches= 150 lbs. 36 inches= 160 lbs.
37 inches= 171 lbs. 38 inches= 181 lbs. 39 inches= 191 lbs.
40 inches = 200 lbs. 42 inches = 220 lbs. 43 inches = 230 lbs.
44 inches = 240 lbs. 45 inches = 250 lbs. 46 inches = 260 lbs.
47 inches = 270 lbs. 48 inches = 280 lbs. 49 inches = 290 lbs.
50 inches = 300 lbs. 51 inches = 310 lbs. 52 inches= 325 lbs.
55 inches needed to get approximately 350 lbs.
60 inches needed to get approximately 400 lbs.

He looks like a fighter...thinned down from breeding, but by the lenth of the rifle and he was thick would go180. But he is f'ed down though or food is scarce...lack of water?
Good hunt..not many people braving the heat...bugs.

Looks about the size of the one I got in January I think.
about 140 - 150 would be my guess.
Nice Hog!
