I finally got my chance on this Tom who has played with me all season.
Passed of a few really nice birds waiting on this one and it payed off this morning.
He and 4 other toms came in to the hen I called in and he stopped at 25 yds away and knew something wasn't quite right. When he turned to leave, the 11-87 Super Mag spoke once pole axing him on the spot.
Beard is 11.25" and the spurs are 1.375".

A very fine looking trophy Jim! I've noticed the gobblers are finally getting more vocal in my neck of the woods albeit a month later than usual. Congratulations
 
Thanks fellas.
It was a fun season passing up 4 different shooters waiting on 1 smart old tom. I had him hang up 2 other times in the thick stuff before he finally gave me the shot opportunity I so patiently waited for.
Mag Blend by Heavi Shot is an impressive load.

It does look as if the wait was worth the effort. Again, congratulations, Jim. Plus, didn't you put some others on birds this year?
 
I called in three toms and we got a double earlier this month.


Now if I could get my daughter Danielle out in the woods.
