I just measured the brand I got on my boots at Beaubien in 2005 and it measures just slightly under 2" x 2".
Keep in mind - and you'll hear this multiple times, I'm sure - if you brand your boots, it voids any Gore-Tex warranty. If you think you'll ever need to use the warranty, don't brand your boots. If having the Philmont brand on your boots is worth more to you than any potential warranty claim for the Gore-Tex liner, then, by all means, get it done. You won't regret it.

Hello, I noticed at our last shakedown that most of the guys have purchased boots with a mixture of leather/suede and mesh . The surface does not look like a good place for the traditional Ranch brands. Does anyone know the size of the brands they do at beaubian or the other western camps? I found a source for round leather discs that are 4" in diameter that I was thinking about taking for the guys to get branded, but I'm not sure they are big enough.
Thanks, Kirk
