My brother came up for his annual trip to hunt with me in Missouri.  I was all tagged out so I could focus on calling for him.  We made some memories on two great hunts.  His first bird on Sunday was no slouch--1 1/4" hooks and 10.5" beard.  We moved north and had no idea this would be waiting for us yesterday morning!!





1 7/8" spurs, 11" paintbrush beard and 22 lbs 14 oz on a certified scale for a total score of 82.375

What a great bird, what a great hunt, and for sure some great memories!!

Wow what a beast. I must agree that that would be taxidermy bound.
Congrats to you and your brother.

Fellas, I just about cried watching him clean that bird.  He already has one mounted that has six beards.  He wanted the hooks to go on his already impressive string.  I caped the fan out for him.
He just called me a little while ago.  He left my house in Southwest Missouri about 3:30 this morning, and I could tell he was pretty excited--he had made it down to Buffalo River country in Arkansas and had just seen his first ever wild elk.

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.
