Beard 2 in.
Total score=22.25+56.50 for bird #1=78.75

I could have waited longer for a larger Gobler,But it was 7:30 am,and I wanted Breackfast and to go Bow-fishing for carp all day,and another Gobler coming around is never a given,and I had 4 Jakes to pick from,so I just picked the one that looked to be the best Eater ;D
Good luck to the rest of ya,We need some more Turkey's up here,I'll be good for 1 more with all these new leases,but,you boy's and Girl's need to start banging them out

Kele, I know I know, I should be out hunting more. Danged ole work sure gets in the way of a good season. 7.5 years from now there won't be that problem, and it'll be the best money the gubment ever spent, for me to stay home!!!!

 

[kele]

I know,I got it kind of easy,I'd be out next Tuesday,A Looking for # 3,but I got to take the Boy/Kele in for his shot's and his annual rip-off check-up ,let the Gardner into the back yard on Wednesday,so it looks like next Thursday ;D,Sucks to be me. I just can't believe Dennis isn't smoking us all,and Craig has been having to much fun getting Walleye's,Lucky bum,I've never caught one of those??? I'm having a fair year,I could have got another nice Tom the other day if I wasn't in a hurry,you could hear them behind me Pi$$ing of the chickens,It was just a matter of time before they did there Business and made there way to me,but that Jake looked Tasty

;D I got #2 this morning @ 8:00 a.m.
It was like a text book hunt.
Me & my Step Daughter set up the decoy & ground blind about 7:15 a.m.
We saw a boar hog 200-300 lbs about 80 yards out, right off the back .(We cant shoot um unless it's a life & death situation.)
Well it was 7:20 a.m. & Gobble Gobble Gobble.
I hit the call with a rythem of 3 sets of quick yelps then followed it up by some puts.
30 minutes later... Mr.Big Tom showed up 30 Yards out 10 yards from the decoy..BOOM!!!
Here are the measurements + score & All the photos.
He was 23.6 lbs 11" beard & 1" Spurs R&L.
23.375+10+10+22=65.375

 

[Gauge]

Both birds add up to...65.375+25.5(Total)='s 91.875.
Sorry {Greg}...That will put me into 1st place. ;D..Hay, ya asked for it brother.
