* edited* The biggest bird I've ever had the pleasure to outsmart. Scored 70.125  (not 75.125)

Thanks DR Juice!  75.125 I thought beard was 11.0 but when I looked closer was 10.75. Evening hunt tonight. Got high on a mountain where I could see a dozen clover fields and glassed the area. Saw him and 4 hens about 600 yards away. Loaded the pack with water hen and Jake decoy took note of where they were exactly and started hustling. I got over there and called in a hen and he followed her to 17 steps. Absolutely the best. I love turkey hunting.....
Look at these hooks!

Not to dismay, but as I look at this picture I am reading the tape at on this spur at 1 1/4" mark... that would be 1.2500
Just guessing but score may read at 70.1250
Still some great hooks
