Ok guys I have some bad news... I never made it to my blind this morning.. I was stopped up by a Tom and 2 hens.. I quickly dodged into some small pine trees and gave a few calls off my pot call and in they came.. The good news is I am tagging out! I am not sure if this one is an upgrade or not yet.. It has a 9 1/2 inch beard and I am going with a 7/8 inch right spur and a 13/16 left spur. I am going to wait for the weight as I weigh them at the tagging station. It does not open until 8 am .. I shot him at 6:15 this morning.. So if it is not an upgrade we will still win part of this contest for sure! I am some glad I passed on those jakes! I hope we will be the winners all the way threw it! Good Luck to anyone that is still hunting.

Sorry guys but this one will not give me any sort of upgrade as it only weighed 17 lbs. 11 ozs.
