Title: Score On My Tennessee Gobbler
Post by: Stoner on May 13, 2011, 11:34:56 PM
Sorry taking so long in posting, been busy with work, softball, and my daughters.
The spur measurements may not be totally accurate since I only had a yard stick at the time the photos were taken to measure the spurs. The spurs are probably a tad longer since I was in able to measure the curvature of the spur like you are supposed to. If anyone wants me to re-measure I will, I have the spurs downstairs. This was my first double-bearded gobbler. I used the Old Gobbler Matic to compute the score.

Main Beard: 10.5"
Second Beard 8.5"
Total Beard Length: 19"
Right Spur:1 7/16
Left Spur: 1 3/8
Weight: 19lbs, 11ozs.

Total Score: 85.8125

That is one bush for a beard, but on all multibeards you have to show a photo of the attachment to skin to see that they are indeed not from the same mass.

Beautiful bird!
Stoner, could you try to get a better picture of where the beards attach to the skin to make sure it is an actual double beard and not just a split in the beard. Either way it is a beauty and if it needs to be scored as a single beard we will do that as it should still help the team score. I just don't want any questions to show up later.
Thanks!
