Congratulations on a fine gobbler! It is great to see you have a good relationship with your son in law. I am very fortunate to have a great relationship with my father in law and it means a lot to me. Good luck getting your gobbler!

Congratulations to you both. Thirty years hunting and I've never killed multi beard.... Awesome!

Beginner's luck is a good thing.  Now he'll be hooked forever, and that first hunt will get him through the tough seasons.  That's how it worked for me.  Awesome looking bird.

Yea ShootingABN! I've got about 30 years under my belt and ZERO on the multiple beards for me too.  Now my daughter has been turkeyin about 8 years and she has 4 multiple beard birds including a 4 bearder, Jr (my son) has been chasing gobblers around 10 years and NADDA multiples either.      Multiple beards run high in this area of MD and so does bearded hens have passed on a couple of them.    Beard rot very common here too maybe that's why they need multiple beards cause they rot and fall off so much  LOL   Must be sumthin in the water.  OH WELL just have to keep shooooten em till I get a few.   
BTW  SIL is getting a shoulder mount of his bird like his sister in law has.

Congrats!
Nothing better than being there with someone and the first bird!
The addiction will cost you time and money and alienate those close to you. I can give you the names of a dozen addicts — myself included — whose wives begin to get their hackles up a week before turkey season starts and stay mad until a week after it closes.

The good Lord ain't made a gobbler I can't kill.  I just gotta be there at the right time.....  on the day he wants to die.

One of my personal current interests is nest predators and how a majority of hunters, where legal bait to the extent of chumming coons.  However once they get the predators concentrated they don't control them.
