The wife and I didn't draw the early hunt this year so we hunted the general hunt. We were not able to hunt until this past weekend. We both got our toms, hers being the largest with a 10 in beard and 1 1/16 in spurs. Mine sported a 9 3/4 in. beard with 3/4 in spurs. Both were Rios. We didn't weigh either bird but I'm guessing her tom would have went over 20 Lbs. Her bird went to Wilderness Taxidermy to get a flying mount done, we have a strutting tom mount I got a couple years ago. We didn't have our camera so the pictures are taken with her cell phone. It was a great Mother's day weekend for her. Ya got to love that women.[
