Arkansas Mountain Gobbler

[hunter22]

I took this gobbler this morning in the Ozark Mountains. I thought he had four beards but when I got him home there was a 5th beard. They are 9 1/2. 7 1/2, 6 1/2, 6 1/2, and 1 1/2 inches long. He had 1 inch spurs and only weighed 18 1/2 lbs.

That's a mighty fine gobbler! I've killed a few double beards but still wishing and hoping for a triple or more!

Jody--- I set up this morning about 30 minutes before it started to get light. I had been there about 20 minutes and three gobblers started gobbling about 75 yards away. I could see them in the trees. I made some soft tree yelps and soft clucks and purrs with my Roger Parks Tree Talker. They all three gobbled and I laid the call down. In about 10 minutes I scratched the leaves and this gobbler landed in my lap. I have killed 4 or 5 just like this before with nothing but the Parks Tree Talker.
