Default Multiple Beard Toms

I was wondering for those of you that have bird hunted a lot, just how rare are toms with more than one beard? I have harvested about 10 birds previously, all with just one beard until this year. This year I hunted public land in Wisconsin for the first time, and both my birds, from different properties, had multiple beards. The first one had 4 and the second 2. The one with 4 is in first place in the HN turkey contest.

Just curious what percentage of toms have more than one. Thanks.
