If the dressed bone-in weight of a deer is 150 pounds (neck,ribcage, back and hind legs) what would the live weight have been?
What do hide and guts weigh?

Michel D. Have a look at this thread . https://www.thehighroad.org/index.php?threads/field-dressed-weight-vs-actual-weight.408671/
And there is this https://www.backcountrychronicles.com/mule-deer-pack-out-weight/
And this https://www.deeranddeerhunting.com/content/blogs/dan-schmidt-deer-blog-whitetail-wisdom/how-much-meat-is-on-1-deer
Keep in mind the phrase Field Dressed as it can mean either hide on or off to some .
Hope it helps

I would agree with that Artic lake .... about 30% for head,hide,hooves and guts ... so about 220lbs?
