Yesterday morning was one I will not forget anytime soon. I got set up and 4 were gobbling pretty good. They kept gobbling and I could tell two were coming in, one harder than the other. The one that was coming harder came up behind me and was only 15-18 feet from me and steady gobbling. Every time he gobbled I thought I would have a heart attack. Finally he started moving around me but in some thick stuff I was final able to get a shot and I took it. He started the death flop so I got over to him. The first thing I noticed he did not have much in the spur department, but he made up in it in others. Triple beard and 23 pounds. Beard lengths 10.5,7,and 5.5 for a total beard length of 23 inches. I had always wanted to get a multibearded bird but a triple was probably once in a lifetime bird. I tried attaching a picture but it was to large of a file.

Congratulations on a super nice bird.

I still get an adrenaline rush when one gobbles at 40yds, at 15-18', I might need a rescue squad!

23lbs, AND a tripple beard...Way to go!

Congratulations. Not easy to sit still in that situation and wait for a good shot.
