I shot this bird Sat. AM.

I set up within 75 yds of his roost at 5:45 AM. Actually saw him in the tree, got closer than I wanted to, but didn't get busted.

He continued gobbling until 6:35, then flew down cutting the distance between us in half, but I could not see him. I purred lightly and he popped up 20-25 yds away. LIGHTS OUT!

11" beard, spurs over an inch. I didn't weigh it, but it was certainly over 20.
