    The weather was cold and wet when I got in with the bird, so photos were limited, but I will try to post what I have soon. I did find out that it would rank as tied for #44 in Kentucky if I registered it. Unfortunately, I did not get all the witnessed documentation necessary for registration. When I began to search the registry, at first I was amazed at the scores of the top birds, many of which weighed less than mine, but I soon realized that the top record book scores occur because of multiple beards which really weight the final score heavily. Some of the top birds had 8 beards! Those top birds had scores more than double mine!!!
