Title: Got lucky again today
Post by: harleytom on April 23, 2016, 02:27:59 PM
Called up this old boy and his entourage this morning about 730. Not an upgrade but a very good one. 15 1/2 pounds, 12 & 1/2 inch beard (my best ever) and 1 & 1/8 and 1 inch spurs. 61.75 NWTF score. Gobbled once on roost and twice on the ground before he got to my setup.

Same here. Shot a mountain bird in WV. No upgrade. Gotta love the practice though. Still another week before home opener.

Congratulations. He must just be worn out from breeding to only be 15.5 pounds? Sounds like me in college!
