I know what futuredoc means about hunting the same bird season after season...
I've been after a crippled Gobbler for three years....on an 80 acre island where he knows he's boss

I found this old thread and brought it back up....My best was broken last year when I killed a 25lb bird (24.75) on certified scales on April 2nd....I weighed him close to 3 hours after I killed him....

Longest spurs were 1 1\2 inch long. Longest beard was 12 1\2. These were on different birds. I`ve never weighed any of mine, but I don`t think I`ve ever killed one that I would consider a real heavyweight.
For me, spurs are what I consider the true trophy, although I keep the beard too.
