Well I got a nice one finally, get the pics latter, the bird is at the taxidermists as we speak. This is for team 11# Its a nice Double bearded 25 pound bird. And yes I am tickeled pink. I just have to decide how to mount him.[:-]
He has a 11 in. and a 9 in. beard 1 3/8 to 1 1/2 in spurs. Beautiful bird. I got him on the 4th day of the hunt. I saw him every day in the same local, so after being shot, thats right ,[][:@][:@] shot on friday morning by another hunter I decided to move out of the area that I was hunting and try for this bird instead. I went in early with tennis on to be quiet (4:30). He parked himself in front of me with a hen at 5:45 and I watched him and videoed him till 6:00. That was it. Talk about happy, wow, when I saw the beards and spurs, it will take some doing to top this one for me. I will post the actual score when I get it. About 88-89.

Now about the hunter that shot me, He pulled up in front of me after shooting hour and stopped. I was out in the middle of a grass field laying on my stomach with a camo cover over me , I got up on my elbows when he stopped and parked, I thought he was looking at my decs with binocs when all of a sudden " BAM" [] and pellets hit me from my shoulder to my leg. [:@]I got up and introduced myself to him as politely as I could in that situation.

The guy turned out to be an old farmer with a handicap license to shoot out his vehicle, I explained not to shoot at any turkeys that dont move anymore.
By the way, its sure nice to still be able to see, another foot of pattern over and who knows?[:' (]
