By dividing the cows' average carcass weight â 475 lbs. in 1975 and 621 lbs. in 2005 â by 47%, we approximate the live weights at slaughter, which is 1,010 lbs. and 1,321 lbs., respectively. A 1,321-lb. cow at slaughter is a big cow, but that's not her mature weight.The mature weight for cows is established at a constant BCS of 5.0. Because the BCS was estimated at 4.5, the average slaughter weight must be adjusted to a BCS of 5.0 to determine her mature weight.y dividing the cows' average carcass weight â 475 lbs. in 1975 and 621 lbs. in 2005 â by 47%, we approximate the live weights at slaughter, which is 1,010 lbs. and 1,321 lbs., respectively.
