Drop Tine Posted May 23, 2015 Share Posted May 23, 2015 (edited) The Triple Trouble Boyz had another good NJ spring gobbler season… I am fortunate to have two awesome friends and hunting partners, Willard & Derek … aka… The Triple Trouble Boyz… We got to share in a few exciting and fun filled hunts together over these last 5 weeks, several ending with feathers flying… Collectively we managed to lay the smack down on a total of 11 good state land long beards… Time to shift into, family time and fishing mode but it’s sure gonna be tough readjusting my hearing back to ignoring those faint, distant, ghost gobbles… LOL Here are pics of my 5, 2015 long beards; Ice Breaker Bird 20 Lbs8 " Beard1 " Slurs NWTF Score: 56 Gobbler #2 19 3/4 Lbs9 3/4" Beard3/4" Sharp Hooked Spurs NWTF Score: 54.25 Gobbler #3 aka Cujo 23 lbs10.5" beard1.25" Spurs NWTF Score: 69 Gobbler #4 19 lbs.7.5” beard... (Missing a lot of it)7/8" Spurs NWTF Score: 52 Gobbler #5 (The Season Ender) 20 lbs.9 3/4" Beard1" Spurs NWTF Score: 59.5 Gonna leave it up to Willard and Derek to post their birds if they want… P.S… The New Winchester Long Beard XR turkey loads are deadly brutal on bird… try it and you’ll love it… I shot and took birds with both, #6 shot and #5 shot… My experience with these two loads are; found the finer #6 tended to put more pellets in the kill zone because of the higher pellet count in the load, and the #5 shot hit home much harder, literally pinning a bird down with very little flopping if any… Just DEADLY STUFF ! Have a great summer everyone… Edited May 24, 2015 by Drop Tine BowhunterNJ, Haskell_Hunter, Rusty and 1 other 4 }}}--I certainly do chase New Jersey's BIG Bucks, BIG Birds, and BIG Fish--->Best Bow Buck to date; 2011 Gross; 142 6/8Best Gobbler to date; 2012 NWTF score of 77.5Best Northern Pike to date; 40" (Passaic River Pike )Best Muskie to date; (The hunt begins) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rusty Posted May 23, 2015 Share Posted May 23, 2015 (edited) You been busy. Bird #3 is a beast!! It's interesting to see the progression of the vegetation throughout the season. Edited May 23, 2015 by Rusty Drop Tine 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkMartinFan Posted May 23, 2015 Share Posted May 23, 2015 Paul, As always I had a great time hunting with you and Derick. I only took a couple of days off because of my hefty schedule at work but managed two real nice birds and one was a double with Derick. Bring on deer season and the rut!
