Nice bird....Good job. I'm gonna keep on getting out there. Will be better later on in the NC area of PA I like to hunt best.
If all else fails, we've got a nice pre- plucked, cleaned Butterball in the freezer. Even has the pop-up button. Little or no pressure here.

my two sons each got one.10 inch beard and a double beard with long one being 7 inch.
I called a huge one in that came silent.It's beard was real close to dragging on the ground.He didn't present a shot and didn't hang around long.Still time left.

I hope you're feeling better BT.
