Easy way to measure turkeys spurs and beard.
If you turkey hunt and records there spurs and beard you are gong to want a Gobbler Gauge. The gobbler gauge measures them in MM. Check it out at www.gobblergauge.com.

It will measure them in MM or inches. Just stick the spur at the end of the shell where my thumb is and push up with the spur as far as it will go. Once it touches the leg you have your measurment. There is a tape measure on the inside, just pop the top of the shell there there it is. Once done with the tape measure just fold it back in the close the top.

The first post was just a simple statement to watch the video and in no way was it intended as sarcasm unless you think I have it in for you because of the patterning thread, LOL! PS: FYI I don't!!!

Spors should be measured along the bottom curve, by the mark where the spur protrudes from the leg all the way to his tip. The measuring intstrument should be a flexible tape.
The beards should be measured from the beard's center, the place where it is attached to the skin, all the way to the longest portion of the beard's tip. Same measuring unit and instrument .(MM)
The beards should be measured from the beard's center, the place where it is attached to the skin, all the way to the longest portion of the beard's tip. Same measuring unit and instrument .(MM)
