Whats your longest beard"POLL"
 

WELL I WILL START MINE IS 11 1/4 INCHES..
BUT A FRIEND OF MINE SAYS HE HAS ONE 14 INCHES..
I HAVE NOT SEEN IT...BUT HE SOUNDS SURE..
..WHAT IS THE RECORD IN LENTH.?????????:eek::eek:

RE: Whats your longest beard"POLL"
 

17" is the record (last time I heard)

The NWTF goes by the "longest filament/strand" to where the "mesofibroplume" ([:-]GAK!) emerges from the skin of the breast.

As for me, I will check in with my paltry 10 3/4" (I'm still very proud of it though!);)

RE: Whats your longest beard"POLL"

RE: Whats your longest beard"POLL"
 

11.5 for me. It was my first turkey I ever took and I now wish I had put him on the wall.

RE: Whats your longest beard"POLL"
 

10 3/5" is mine.
you have to watch the books,if it is 3 or 4 beards they add all of them together.thats kinda ,in a way not the right way to do it for the single bearded birds.
there should be a different scoring for them.

whatdaya think????

RE: Whats your longest beard"POLL"
 

10" is mine.

RE: Whats your longest beard"POLL"
 

I do belive the longest beard I have is 9 1/2 inches.
