I have four different weight estimation tables I can compare to, but is there an official one being used right now? Which one do you use? Maybe some people find more accuracy in one versus the others?? I've always used the one from Don's second book. When someone can gain 33 pounds in book 2, they can gain 35 in book 3, and 37 in the 2005 table, so what is it?

The GPC website has the 2008 updated version of the OTT chart. Click on the resources tab to find it.

personally id use the one that gives me the most weight.lol
we use the gpc chart.
the reason the charts change is because as the data and weight of the giants increases? adjustments to the estimate charts are made.

Mark is correct the 2008 version on the GPC resource page is the latest update:

The chart does no one any good if you are not getting the correct measurements. If you are not 100% sure how to get the measurements correctly please review the "how to measure" video:

Getting the wrong measurements does not make your pumpkin weigh more, we need the correct measurements to help us keep the OTT charts accurate.
