Default My biggest bird to date!

Was sitting in the blind, kept hearing the biggest water drops in the world land on the roof.... this tom and 6 hens flew out from the tree that my blind is under(turns out it wasnt rain drops falling from the sky), landed about 45 yards from me, strutted around for 5 - 10 minutes 1 shot kill broke his wing and nexk, paced it out at 52 yards!
13/8 inch matchingspurs
103/4 inch beard
26.2 lbs
NWTF score..... 75.50 points
now thats a good WI bird...In my opinion

PS it was not as dark as the pictures make it look, it wasa FULL 3 minutes into open season.
