Title: 2015 Contest Rule Change (Multi Bearded Birds) Applies to 2020 as Well

We are now only counting in the score a birds longest beard.  Years before it was all beards.  I personally do not like the change, but very much understand it.  We just need to remember that the only beard that will count is the longest.

Copied from rules:
only the longest beard of a multi bearded gobbler will be scored for the Team contest this is a subject of controversy, there may be a separate Individual non typical (not team ) contest gobblers may be scored in both but in the team contest only the longest beard or spur on each leg

Also highlighted in the thread of the 2020 rules.
