This is for post very clear pictures of bird on scale, tape on beard, and tape on spurs. There is a good example in the main rules thread. They will be submitted from here. Got to be put in also in a timely manner. If there are NO pictures then the score will be the default score according to the rules
Opening day bird in the sip. Had to fight the arkies over this one. Scored 54.76. Public land.
.
Got it!!

What a stud. Congrats
Did the rules change: do we only count the longest beard?
I know in the past you would add all the lengths together.
Just read the rules and it is longest beard only, I do not like that rule: but we have to go with it.

Nice birds fellas. Real nice. I hate multi beards don't count...that's an odd rule for sure, not exactly sure what that is supposed to do for anyone. Oh well, yal doing good.

Thanks it's my first bird with a scratcher. He went nuts for it just a few real soft clucks and yelps and he came in screaming the whole way. I was really surprised how far he heard it from
Congrats to everyone who has put one down! Keep it up guys!

Brother I have been sending pics to my taxidermist and a few other buddies who know me well. My initial thought when I walked up was yes! I came unglued!! But after looking at closely it appears to be split??? From a fight??? Doesn't look natural. If someone didn't know me or my character, they would think I cut it. Not the case tho. Very odd but however the Lord blessed me with a great hunt!!

Im sorry bro...I feel your pain, we get hit from the north by the arkies and from the south by the coonies the first 2 weeks of every turkey season. This year was the worst ive ever seen it. It will not last at this rate. Missouri already being on one of the heavier declines in the country doesn't need it for sure...but maybe yal will have a good hatch this year....doubtful as I think the flood water is coming. we already flooded down south, have been since last November.

Ive killed a bird with a parted/split beard once...but it just physically grew 2 different directions from the same stalk so to speak. I believe you have a double beard man....on occasion the second beard isn't always a little pencil. guy killed one at my camp a couple years ago with a 10" main and a 8.5" second that was just as thick. Its just a picture so in person I may have a different opinion on it but from here it looks like a double. it is kinda close together I reckon. reguarless a trophy.
Season is over for me. I was able to make it out again on Saturday, but no luck.
Weather has been bad lately, which never helps.
Rough year with everything going on, felt like I just never " really got into it", hard to focus I guess.
I am still routing for you guys, keep the stories coming and everyone be safe.
John
That's definitely a unique beard.
Season is winding down here also. I am gonna try to go the last couple days. Just to see if one is around that wants to play. Hope all of you guys are safe and doing well.
Into the second week of season and only thing I've accomplished is calling one in for my brother on a private farm and dealing with the absolute most out of state hunters I've ever seen in my neck of the woods. Gonna try and hunt the private farm again and I got one more unknown spot, I think, lol. I got asked to work at distillery a little earlier than expected so that's cutting into my hunting time. Still got another week after this one so maybe I can find a dumb one. Congrats to all the guys in the team that killed!! I'll get on more but was tryin to run and gun after a player, lol. I appreciate all the help too from everyone cause I'm tryin to do this on my phone.???? Be safe

Thanks guys! Yeah I started on the public land and was on birds but couldn't close the deal. I ended up getting permission on a 120 acre farm. It's probably 108 acres of open, tilled field. So I wasn't too sure, but I saw some fresh tracks while scouting. I wound up scoring the first morning I hunted it.

Well my seasons over fellas. I killed one more on my last day to hunt, yesterday. Fried turkey breast tomorrow and made some turkey salad with the legs and thighs tonight! Had a lot of fun this year and look forward to doing it again next year.

Got it Turkeyman, congratulations!! Down to 2 days left here in Mo. Freeze warnings tonight but at least no rain. Did have an F1 tornado rip up through the ole hunting ground,???????????. Trees down everywhere.
Congrats! 1 week left here in WV with limited days in my schedule. Hoping to tag out

Well my season is done. Toughest season I've ever hunted, considering it's the most I've got to hunt. The amount of extra pressure and birds just not cooperating and thus crazy weather didn't help. All I managed to do is call one in for my brother! Sorry guys I didn't contribute to the team. Wasn't for lack of tryin, that's for dang sure.
It was a rough season for me to. I wanted to kill a bird so bad on my public land spots and never really even got into the game with a bird.

TH, I feel ya buddy. I hunted more than I ever have but had a rough time getting on them this year. Not real sure what the deal was. Enjoyed the contest guys! Congrats to all who managed a bird. Y'all stay safe.
