What is this cat scale telling me?
I tried to provide you with a picture but it was asking for a url and I didn’t know how to do that so here are the figures from the cat scale this morning. I think I understand but the tongue weight ...

To know for sure weigh the tongue with the bathroom scale method.
You would be hard pressed to convince me a bathroom scale/beam set up will read within the 20 lbs the cat rounds things. He is far enough from the hitch limit we know not over, so not too heavy. He has not mentioned any handling issues, so not too light.
For fun, I brought home a 400lb big game scale from the hunt ranch. I’m going to weigh it since I can but not bc I have any doubt about the actual weight of the tongue.
Edit: just weighted using game scale and came up with 285. Used bathroom scale which maxes at 300 and I got 295. Cat scale indicated 320.
More variances than I would prefer since I like to be precise but bottom line is, no matter what scale I use, I’m under tongue rating.
