I'm 35 been this is my 11th year hunting I've killed 51 with beards and countless hens in the fall. I've got a lot of respect for the birds I've harvested so I've got every beard on the wall.

I'll be 55 next month and I have not kept up on the running total. I hope to continue to harvest them for many, many more years. I don't think the numbers really matter. I want to harvest them cleanly and the game is the thing for me. If they didn't gobble I don't think it would be any fun.

I been trying to figure it out and can't,the best I have is I been doing it 27 years, and my best year was 16 and worst was 3 over the last 15 years, probabbly averaging 8. Before that I went between 1 and 5 a year. I really never kept good count. I know I lost a shoe box of beards and a whole string of spurs in a move several years ago.

I am 32 years old an have been hunting spring turkeys for 18 years. Probably killed 25 or so turkeys. The main point is that I have killed enough to show that I have learned a thing or two, but I have missed or blown enough opportunities to show that I have a lot to learn.
Jakes are like scotch. They are not worth a darn until they age.

Been hunting in SC for 5-6 years and have killed 4 birds. Had the opportunity at a few others but just could not make it happen. Still learning a lot and loving every second of it. I am 25 years old.

I've killed 4 longbeards. All this year ! 2 off public land in Louisiana and 2 off private land in Kansas. I turned 31 in April. I have been hunting these dang birds off and on for years, but I have been serious about it the last 5 years.
In fall we rut, in spring we strut
