This was a pretty nice old monarch I harvested in 93.I've taken quite few birds in the 70 point class but this was one of the few memorable ones that after looking him over believe was at the peek of his maturity!!
11.25 beard
23lb's
1 3/8's needle sharp spurs right and left
Merriam,Rio cross.....P.S nice mount Jimbo,one heck of bird,same goes to the rest you folks!!!
Awesome gobblers!![8D]I will say this though a trophy isn't neccessarily measured by his spurs and beard but often times in my mind by the challenge he put you through on the hunt itself!I can recall many hunts where the gobbler didn't turn out to be the biggest I'd ever harvested but through the ups and downs of the hunt proved himself to be a true trophy!!!
