Well, I shot a 25 pounder with an 11 3/4 inch beard, and with 1 1/4 spurs. That is what it was scored at. When I measured the spurs I thought they were 1 3/8, but I guess I was measuring wrong. Anyway's it was scored at 14 1/8!!!! This is my second year, I think I'm hooked!!

hypox, what a dandy bird. what county was it taken in? i know the feeling of shooting one that big. couple a years ago i got a tom with a 11 7/8 " 1 1/4" spurs and only 21 lbs. now i'll have two mounts after this season. i got both of mine in traverse city area. way to go on the trophy!
