RE: GOOD luck all you GEORGIA HUNTERS
Well I finally broke the ice. Third day of the season, 20 to 30 mile ph wind gust and got a bird at 6:20 p.m. this afternoon. A hen came in feeding at 6:00 p.m., 10 minutes later I see the gobbler coming. At 6:20 p.m. I had him down, not the greatest bird I've taken but just as much fun. I didn't hear but one bird this morning and couldn't turn him. Went back at 2:00 p.m. and set up a blind, got in it around 3:00 p.m. with a thermos of coffee. Was there more to see if I could tell where their roost was. I was proud of my gun, haven't had to shoot anything over 20 or 30 steps since I got it 2 years ago, but today, I steped it off going to the bird and back to the blind, 46 steps. Don't what that equals in actual yardage, will measure it later.
I believe I'm on team 5 (can't find the list to that either).
He weighed 19.6 lbs., 9.5 inch beard, both spurs was only three quarter inches. I'll figure his score when I find the web site to do so.
I'm a happy camper.

P.S.Just found the calculator, this should be correct:
19.375+7.5+7.5+19= 53.375 , I am on team #5.
