I also believe it is a bearded hen. A Jake isn't going to have an 8" beard...looks like a full fan, too, which a Jake wouldn't have. And, as was previously mentioned, the weight makes me think hen.
I killed a bearded hen a few years ago, and I am still quite proud of it! There aren't near as many of them as there are Toms! Congrats on a fine bird!

Anyway I drove past my hunting area today and didn't like what I saw!

High Water
So I drove by my hunting area today to take a peek and found this. But after checking the water level forecast there is hope! Just in case, I located a couple other properties to stop by and scout for a plan B & C tomorrow afternoon.
Good thing I didn't draw 3rd season. The chart says it was 7' higher then!

Scored on a bird yesterday. Tough start to the day with rain and wind. Birds weren't making a peep. Finally bounced to a farm and got one to answer just before noon. He weighed 22 lbs, 10" beard, and 7/8" spurs. I will get a pic up tomorrow.

DTC good job!
Sounds like a nice big bird. I got schooled yesterday, I'm fair at decoy setups but have a lot to learn about run & gun. If I would of stayed put instead of circling the tree, but he took a big loop coming in and I got busted. Hope I never get them figured out, it would take all the joy out of it.
