Last year I took a 22 1/2 lb. 10 1/2 inch beard with 1 and 1/8 inch spurs...not too bad for here in central PA. Worked him for alittle over 2 hours before he finally came into range...definitely an exciting hunt!
Couple of years ago I shot one that weighed 22 1/2 lb and had 1 1/2" hooks.Don' t know about the beard length cause this was the now famous,Dang I shot his beard off.I' ve shot a few with 10 1/2 and 11" beards and all I know is this was longer than any other I have taken.
