Gobbler #2 down! definatly going to replace this one with the last... I got in under this guys roost and was there for maybe 10 minutes last night when I started to hear crunch crunch crunch... they kept getting louder and the I saw a gobbler with what looked like its beard to be dragging on the ground, but that ended up being cause he was kindof hunched over while walking... anyways I had a hen decoy out and made a couple calls, but there was no use calling since he was headed right for me, so I just stayed quiet. pretty soon, there another big boy behind him! not quiet as big, but still well over a 9" bearded tom, so the first one came within 40 yards of me... I just had a full choke and steel #4's so I was hopeing that would be enough because he wouldn't come into the decoy, he seemed to be heading somewhere else before he got in his roost. Anyways, I wasn't gonna wait for him to come back so I shot and dropped him right there in his tracks!

17lbs 9 3/4" beard(my biggest!!!!!!) R spur 7/8" L 5/8"
