Hevishot13 OP 14 point Joined: Apr 2015 Posts: 7,823 North Alabama	I’ve killed a lot of turkeys, but never a double beard until today. And to top it off, he had a leg band and a radio transmitter attached. 10 1/2” main beard, 7 1/2” secondary beard, one spur was broken at 3/4”, the other was broken at a little over an 1” long. Scars and scabs on his feet, he appears to be old. It’ll be interesting to see his life history on the wma if they let me see the radio transmitter data. It’s been a fun season, I’m sad to see it’s end in sight!

I took it to the closest WMA check in station to find a GW. He took my name, address and phone number and gave me his and told me they would mail me the data once they had a chance to study it themselves. It's 2019 and he's yet to return my phone call after leaving messages for 3 years. I gave up. If I ever kill another one with a transmitter, they'll never see it. I'll find someone to get the data for me. I was curious to see his travel patterns between fall and spring over the years. There are two rules for success: 1. Never tell everything you know.

If it was not from last year tagging the transmitter probably has stopped working by now. Nice lady when you call.

I mailed it in and found out that it was banded in Elgin, Illinois and was 7 years old! No telling how many dove shoots that old bird had gotten thru. They sent me a nice certificate as well. Keep us posted. Congrats!

I hunted one area that double beards made up prolly 25% of the birds killed. Other areas they are pretty rare. I've spent most of the money I've made in my lifetime on hunting and fishing. The rest I just wasted..... proud Cracker-Americaan muslims are like coyotes, only good one is a dead one
