Got some good info from my neighbor last night on where one was roosted. He'd been after him since opening morning and was throwing the towel in. I moved from my original set up and got as close as could to being between 2 gobbling birds. Turned out to be 3 longbeards. Two of them pitched straight to me. The TSS was totally unnecessary at 16 steps. Good 3 year old. 19lbs 9 1/4" beard and 1" spurs.

Good deal.
There is not much a better feeling that considering throwing in the towel on a bird and giving it another go and nailing him.
Be there and done that!
Congrats again.
Now, go find the last one you were about to give up on and nail him:)

Congrats brother!!!! That's a sharp looking killing machine you have there.
