Title: One for my son

Been chasing this guy for a couple weekends now. My son was determined to get this guy. Last weekend he comes into range and my son's gun misfires. Needless to say we have to replace the firing . This morning though with my 20 the gun does its job. Even though it was foggy Pappy's copper pot did the trick. 1"&1 13/16" spur, 9" beard. Didn't weigh alot although his wing tips were worn right off. Definitely the boss Tom out if the three that have been hanging around together. Hope you enjoy

Dang misfires are rough on a guy. Going back and getting him is sweeter!
