Title: Closed it out in Cali
Post by: Hayudog on May 15, 2016, 12:58:21 AM
Nice bird but it won't upgrade. While attacking the decoy he clipped one of his Spurs. It was fresh bloody. Bow bird and heavy for this late in the season. 1 1/8" and 3/4" broken Spur.  21.5 pounds and a 9 1/2 " beard.
First hunt my lady attended. Her comment... I like this!  A very good season for me.  2 California bow birds, 2 Idaho birds, and an Eastern in Iowa.... I have a score to settle in Iowa. Missed a toad.

Broken spur. 1 1/8 and 3/4"

And this is a near miss with a Magnus Bullhead.

Looks like he scores 59.25, and I ran him as both Spurs at 1 1/8" he came in at 63.  Both shy of an upgrade.
I'm done boys....we need a 9th bird. But, if not a good run at it. This was our best team year by far.
Lady and I are off to Sodona for a break. I'll keep watch from Az.  ????????????

Congrats on a great season!! :icon_thumright: I agree, our team did much better this year than in past years. A couple more tweaks to the team roster, and we could be contenders every year. :z-guntootsmiley:
Let me know when you want to head to Iowa for some retribution. I retire on May 30th of next year, so us old retired guys :firefighter: :firefighter: can cruise around the country chasing gobblers. :icon_thumright: :fud: :OGani: :funnyturkey:
