Bird number 1 of 3 this year (2 in WV 1 in VA). All about 17 lbs, over inch spurs and 9 inch beards. Most recent one is my first over 4000 ft. These big woods mountain gobblers sure are smaller than other ones on here, 20+ pounds is rare where I hunt.

Bazinga...

Filled my two 4th season tags with one shot. Was a group of 5 that came in and I had to be careful not to knock more than two down with one shot :shock:

Each had 1-1/8" spurs, one was 24 lbs 10.5" beard the other 22 lbs 10" beard.
