Sell a 4 Beard ?

[idgobble]

Is there any market for this Merriams beard?  I don't need it.  Downsizing all my calls and other stuff.  This was taken in April 2018.  Inches--10 11/16, 9.5 , 8.25, 7 7/8.  Would be about # 32 in the NWTF Records last I checked. I didn't enter it.  Is it worth anything?

[guesswho]

Not to me.   The memory is the valuable part.  I have no need for a beard from another mans turkey.  I'm sure someone would buy it though.  I have no idea what someone would pay.

I'd expect someone willing to pay some money for it on eBay. Saw a set of 1.5" spurs sell for almost $300 if I remember right.

Couldn't give you a value, but I have sold a lot of fans and wing sets. I will not sell my beards or spurs though, not because of $$ but their "value" is to me.
Guess you can find them on e-bay and go from there, for me only value would be what I could re-sell it for, If I didn't kill it I don't care about it... and looking at as a money maker.

Shoot my 4 beard has been collecting dust for 3 years and a couple strands have fallen out. I didn't think beards were worth anything. Other than sentimental value which is why I still have it

Careful selling wild game parts...Some places, like N.J., it's illegal...

I'm dumbfounded that there is a market for beards. I been tossing them for years.

I have every beard from every Gobbler I've killed every fan and spurs also. Don't know why  anyone would want to buy a Gobblers beard. I have seen duck leg bands for sale, I guess you could buy a dozen or so to hang off your call lanyard and look like a real hunter lol. That's a big part of what's wrong with hunting nowadays people wanting to "look" the part without the effort. I say if you don't want the beard throw it in the fireplace.

You would be surprised what people will pay on eBay. I sold a 9 point deer rack a month ago that someone gave me. The winner paid $97 plus $20 shipping
I would try there.

Same, even the spurs. Got tired of them laying all around getting nasty

That's not a specific to hunting, there's people like that for all kind of pursuits. Always going to be some wannabe that acts the part, just to be cool.

I should sell out my beards and spurs and retire.

Amen on that!  Great piece with Zach by the way - graceful ice moves (I write the music for the show! My latest tune is Catman's Ice Dance!).

This is a 3 beard I sold to a guy a few years ago, along with some spurs, a turkey skull and a tail. Sold the whole works for $10.  He was going to make some Native American ornaments out of them and trade them at a trappers rendezvous.

You do some awesome music for them, always been a fan of it. And I'm not sure if you're joking or not about the ice dance but that's pretty funny either way.
