9.5 beard.
he was a fatty!
i had to climb a SERIOUS cliff to get to him in the near dark. he started gobbling at 4:45 am! wierd!
flew down and NOT A PEEP!
i sat for an hour, then hit the call. i hear a gobble about 400 yds away. i got situated and hit the call again ...200 yds! he's trucking. cluck, cluck, 100 yds.... yelp....50 yds...see his head....kick the leaves...GOBBLEOBBLEOBBLE20 yards bang-o!
