Pretty short story, walked out to the garage about 5am to get my gear on and started the 10min rainy walk to where I planned on hunting. Got to the area and found a good tree to lean against, set up the Killer B about 15yds out in the cut field and was relaxing in the rain by 530.
At 610, 3 long beards pitch out of the treeline 20yds to my right and landed about 100yds out. Gave a few yelps and all 3 came right in in a hurry. Shot the first 1 that tried to mess up my new decoy. The other 2 hung around for a few minutes gobbling and acting crazy by the decoy and their fallen friend.
20lbs 9in beard 33mm spurs

Forgot to mention- I called a buddy after I got back and told him to come out and get 1 if he didnt have any luck at his first. When I got up for work this afternoon he was waiting at his truck with a nice double beard that he killed from the same spot as me. 20lbs 26mm not sure on the exact beard length but they were around 10 and 6in. It was his first double beard and was also taken from the same spot as mine last year.
