Please post the scoring photos of your gobblers on this page. Remember that clear photographs of correctly measured, scored and posted birds will go a long way in helping to keep nervous tics from developing in our competitors.
Post the following photographs for each bird:
1. Weight scale reading with turkey showing measurements to the ounce.
2. Right spur with tape measure running along outside curve from tip to the point where the spur emerges from the leg scales.
3. Left spur with tape measure running along outside curve from tip to the point where the spur emerges from the leg scales.
4. Entire beard with tape measure from point where beard emerges from skin to the end of the longest beard strand. (You can add in another shot of the tape measure and longest beard strand to help clarify it.)
5. Overall photograph with your grinning mug, the entire gobbler and a clearly filled out TR20s21 Scoring sheet.
Please post photos of EVERY gobbler that you take, even if he is not an upgrade to your high score. 20 gauge success breeds 20 gauge success. :icon_thumright:
Shoot early, shoot often :z-guntootsmiley:

On the board, nice one bro :turkey2:
I actually had a private landowner ask me to go kill some turkeys on his place. OK. I found two gobblers that travel across his cow pasture in the evenings. This was the smaller of the two. Weight - 13.87 lbs., beard - 8.25", right spur - 0", left spur - 0", Total score - 30.37

Yep, that's just about the lowest scoring adult gobbler I have ever taken. I am still glad to have him. ;D
Remember to score and post EVERY gobbler you take.

I got a tag for IL this year and found a stud of a bird. I really didn't expect him to score so high. I knew he was an upgrade for me as I measured beard and spurs to register him in IL but didn't weigh him til I got home. I knew he was heavy but with only 1 inch spurs I was surprised when I put him in the calculator and scored him. (https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20210424/08d1dc1ef94f843134287fde0cb3b8a1.jpg)

Finally got around to posting pictures of my WV bird. Also note the one with my grandson taking notes.
Norm, please disregard the one spur length of 1.25. It is actually 1-1/8. Revised score should be 66. I incorrectly filled out the sheet wrong at the time but now as I look at the pictures I see the real number.

My score sheet lists the beard as 9 &13/16. I didn't realize the better half didn't get a pic when the longest strand was pulled straight, so I am revising my beard length to show what is in the picture. 9&11/16. This will revise my overall bird score to 53.96. Also edited my score sheet to cover my given name. Didn't realize we were just using screen names...my bad
