For all you hooks fans!!

[Hooksfan]

My brother came up for his annual trip to hunt with me in Missouri.  I was all tagged out so I could focus on calling for him.  We made some memories on two great hunts.  His first bird on Sunday was no slouch--1 1/4" hooks and 10.5" beard.  We moved north and had no idea this would be waiting for us yesterday morning!!





1 7/8" spurs, 11" paintbrush beard and 22 lbs 14 oz on a certified scale for a total score of 82.375

What a great bird, what a great hunt, and for sure some great memories!!

Wow what a beast. I must agree that that would be taxidermy bound.
Congrats to you and your brother.

Fellas, I just about cried watching him clean that bird.  He already has one mounted that has six beards.  He wanted the hooks to go on his already impressive string.  I caped the fan out for him.
He just called me a little while ago.  He left my house in Southwest Missouri about 3:30 this morning, and I could tell he was pretty excited--he had made it down to Buffalo River country in Arkansas and had just seen his first ever wild elk.
