Topsfield, Ma.

Anyone know the correct method for measuring LG's? Just want to be sure we're doing it like everyone else.

My understanding was end to end...no curves allowed?

Duff, It's end to end. Put them on a table & stand a block of wood at each end of the gourd & measure the distance in between. Deb's right, curves don't count. Good luck.

Cornwall UK.(50N 5W)300ft.

The long stuff here gets laid on a sheet of paper on a flat surface a mark is made at the top and bottom and the distance between the two marks measured.I've seen several different world records that have been measured this way.

Thanks folks, that sounds pretty straight forward.
