tell me about it, i shot a bird this spring that i still cant figure out. gobbled like a matur tom all the way in, puffed up into full strut with a full fan, and even ad a big gobbler head. never could see the beard because of how tall the grass was, but needless to say i shot. then to my disbelief i got over there and it had a4inch beard and absolutely NO spurs. how do you explain this? would this be a gobbler or jake? idc either way i am proud of this bird (first i called in and killed all by myself), just curious.


i may be stupid, but arent steers simply bulls that had their boys clipped at an early age. ive always heard they do this because it makes the meat alot better. idk just the way ive always understood it.
With a full fan, was more than likely of a late hatch two Summers earlier. That would make him about a 20 month oldadult Tom.

The cow thing was just bull, but was actualy a question on an exam way back in High Shool Ag class.
