Sorry guys! We had to go get a new laptop - we couldn't get on huntingnet and my wife was throwing a bloody fit! LMAO
Killed this one Friday morning - he came in silent. Wife (Turkey Goddess) killed one in Wisconsin w/ JW on Monday - so she told me to take the shot. Killed him at 25 paces, all we could see was beard. He had a nice thick paintbrush beard. Would have scored great, but unfortunately one of his spurs had broken off.
22.0 lbs, 11 1/4" beard, 1 spur at 1 1/8"
Your score is 22 + 11.25 + 0 + 22.5 = 55.75
Would have scored 67 with that other spur - dang it!!! LOL!!!
Good job team! I'm done for the season, didn't fill my Wisconsin tag - but was worth the trip to see my wife get one!

Great job Shane! He must of been a fighter as well as a lover and hooked that spur up side a lesser Toms head! Good job TG get some pictures up real soon. Glad you guys had a good hunt up in the Northland.Welcome back to GODS country in Southern Indiana,it's been a good but often tough saeason here at home. Man I can't wait to see if we pulled out in front during the last week or so,we have taken some dandy birds in that last 7 days. Have you guys gotten birds in Indiana yet? anyone know if SS got one or not?

Thanks JW for getting the new Team Stadings Up! It's pretty close for the Top 4 Teams. One good bird can make the difference for the number one spot. Arrowmaster we got anyone still out trying to get Birds? SS56 is still trying isn't he? This contest is a good one,it reminds me of the Derby finish Saturday in Kentucky. I want to thank all the Team Members on The Beard Bandits for a great effort so far,if Indiana would give me a 2 bird season I would get back out there and try to knock down a better bird for sure. Well we are at the wire and ahead by a nose,it looks like a photo finish is coming at the end.
