I'm going to have to disagree with you, there isn't a jake alive with 1 inch spurs. Like I said earlier.... most 2 year olds don't eclipse the 1 inch mark unless they were an early hatch. I've also seen single gobblers run with droves of jakes a pile of times. I once saw one longbeard running with 37 jakes out West years ago.

I can verify that there was at least one alive with 1" spurs - he is dead now. I killed him about 20 years ago. Staggered tail fan, short beard and 1" rounded spurs. He would have been a good one the next year!
