Title: Mississippi bird down
Post by: Big Timber on March 30, 2012, 05:52:39 PM
I roosted this bird yesterday evening and I got set up on him this morning in the rain, he finally pitched down at 7:45 and came in to around 40 yrds. behind some thick drush and then turned and walked off so I made a big circle around him and set back up on him, by then he had got with some hens but I stuck with him and finally got him at 1:00 and shot him at 30 yrd. Didn't notice the second beard until I got back to my truck. 10.5 in. and a 5 in. beard with 1 1/8 spurs.
