Default 500LB+ GAME SCALES

Does anyone know where I can get 500lb+ game scales? The only ones I can find, go to 300lbs. I don't really want to quarter up an animal just to weigh it. Thanks.

They have the 300lb scales, but nothing larger. Thanks anyway.

That's what I'm looking for. I was hoping to pay $150 or less, but I may have to bite the bullet and spend a little more I guess. Thanks for the info.

Are you saying to hook both scales together(one right below the other) or do you mean I should use two scales and hang each back leg of the animal on its own scale?
