well I didn't increase the score of my biggest bird . Instead I actually walked away from a longbeard to go kill a jake.

Well a little more to it than that but in essence that's what happened. I had to go to the washroom real bad and so I left the gobbler. The night before I had an encounter with the jake on the roadside. He flew up into a pine tree right at the road edge on a front lawn. I tried to bust him over into the bush so I could hunt him the next morning if need be. Instead he turned and flew back across the road to another yard and then gobbled away at us. I told my buddy that I knew where he would eventually end up later in the morning and I might just have to go kill his arse for being so cheaky to us
8:50am he was 20 yds and got his payback.
