    Anyone have any pics of turkeys with more than one beard? Or just an odd looking beard?

    This guy is on my hit list

    I got a double bearded tom running around a property I plan to hunt. He's avoided trail cameras, but I have seen him shed hunting a few times.

    I shot an Eastern in ID back in '94 that had 5 beards (total beard length was like 28"!). I was a bit PO'ed that it was an Eastern when I was hunting for a Merriam's but I couldn't complain too much!

    I have killed a double beard with the bow and a triple beard with the gun.
    I hunted the triple beard bird for 4 days with my bow and I could not get him close enough so on the fifth day I brought the gun and ended up shooting him at 10 yards.(I should have just brought the bow on the fifth day)
