Well I got right in the middle of them this morning,had 4 differant gobblers going off and a few hens. The hen's where roosted in some tree's behind me so with me yellping and the hen's yellping it was almost two easy of a set-up. I heard the 2 closest to me hit the grounds and gave a few yelps to let them know one was close. The 2 came all puffed up and by 6:40 my first morning was all over. I am going to say the other probably had a little better fan then this one but not sure on how he would of weighed. Both beards looked to be about the same length to me, I stepped off 30 paces to where he laid in the woods. This morning makes me remember real fast of those years when I wonderd if I was ever going to get a bird..His beard was 11 1/4 inches long, weight is 22lbs and 1 spur is 1 inch the other was 7/8 of a inch..
1st bird of the year
