Title: We need a bunch of these this year!
Post by: mfd1027 on February 20, 2011, 12:01:39 AM
Rick, shot our biggest bird last year but I'd sure be happy if we could put 9 of these in the contest.   One of the guys on my lease shot 3 multi-bearded birds last year.   I've never seen anything like it.   One had "4" scoreable beards.   A high scoring multi-bearded bird would be icing on the cake for us.   

I've got a good feeling about this team!!

This contest is going to be good for me in that it will force me to be selective.  Being fairly new, it is  also scary, the prospect of passing up a bird.

Yeah I would like to see all us get a multi bearded bird this year, but a bunch of good 2 or 3 year olds will do great wonders for our team to.

Don't pass up any unless you know for sure you can still get a bird.

Josh.   Like Rick said forget that "passing up" crap. lol    Kill em and we'll sort em out afterwards.   It's super hard to judge turkeys esp. in a woods situation.   Multi bearded birds nearly always look short on the beard end and you don't realize they're a multi bearded bird until you walk up to em.    Kill em!!!  :fud: :z-guntootsmiley:

My biggest bird was a single beard that scored 78. I killed it at Ft. Campbell military base, I'm about due another one that big.

Man that is a hog right there, my big one last year scored a 73 if I remember right and I thought he was huge, I can't comprehend a 78, thats crazy big.
