We knew this bird and we knew he wouldnt come straight in so i was ready when he came in behind me . BOOM from 15 yards  ....    Pretty big one , he has 3 beards and 1 " spurs . longest beard is 9 inches , second is 5 and the third is 6 . Thats 20 inches of beard for those of you ... never mind . Now its my turn to call one in for my buddy   :IBCOOL:

Rougheye,

Get a real camera!  Yet, the cell phone camera has been working.  I won't be able to get out for 2 more weeks.

Nicely done.

No joke, i've been passing people on the roads with gear and setups that look like they're deer hunting.  Upper County is slammed with people, lots of people just riding the roads on quads, when did turkey hunting become a road hunt?

Years ago when WDFW starting training people to hunt turkeys that way..............as in  "free taggers".  No longer have the free tags, but it left it's mark. :bash:

Congratulations on the bird.  Multiple bearded birds are hard to come by.

Nice bird congrats, Holly crap you aint lying about all them dang people... My buddys and I stayed at 29 pines from thursday to sunday evening. Probably seen our white F-350 power stroke a few times... I could not believe all the people, Thursday got on a tom that was already hen'd up... Friday and saturday not one gobble then sunday shock gobbled one but it was just alittle call shy from all them crazies out in the woods just making a bunch of noise with there calls... Called in 6 different hunters this year in the teanaway... pretty lame... Im pretty sure I have heard the worst calling ever in that area dang people... Anyways Congrats good TOM
