Had this bird come in close and then shy from the decoys. He stayed on the right side of the blind for over an hour. He strutted and spit at me and continually rubbed against the blind. It was crazy. I gave him a few purrs and he stuck his head inside the blind! I dared not move or I would have got it on film. He finally committed to the decoys and I made the 8yd shot. It seemed far since he was 5ft from me for an hour. LOL. He was just about 25lbs, 1" spurs and 10" beard. Total score was 64.875. I will post him up on the scoring thread later. Headed to Nebraska next.
Nice bird! Don't forget to get him on the scoreboard, we need the scores!!
