All done in Iowa for 2013...crushed the head of a good one this morning, almost an upgrade! 27.46 lbs, 11 1/2 beard and 1 1/8 spurs. Tough hunting in the cold, wind and rain but I got it done. Bird was silent on the roost and after fly down. I was really thinking it was gonna be a bust. Turned out just the opposite!
