Back in 2014 my dad shot a 5 bearded turkey. I've never seen one before or since. Has anyone else shot a turkey with multiple beards?

5 Bearded Turkey

That is a true turkey trophy. Very cool.

Congrats to your dad, very impressive It would have been neat to see a pic of the bird.

Killed a double bearded bird in high school. One 9" and the s cond was 2" long. Almost didn't even notice it. Haven't even killed a turkey in at least 5 years.

Your dad's is the most impressive turkey beard I have seen for sure.

My buddy shot one a few years ago I called in for him outside junction . He had 3 beards

we had a bird killed with 8 birds here in North Carolina

the bird was insane! A true one of a kind trophy

I shot one with 5 this year in west Texas.

That's a first 4 me

That's a nice one! I've never shot one with more than one beard but I hope to one day!

Harvested one in Missouri several years ago with 5. Got one this past year with 3.

Nice turkeys
We had a kid shoot a 3 beard on our lease in Mason County.

We kill close to 15 birds a year in Seguin out of those I would say 65% have multiple beards. Lots of genetics for multiple beards down there. I watched this bird for two seasons and he seemed to only show when there were no clients hunting. He has 5+ beards and I believed him to be in the 33"-36" range total. He was never harvested.

Neat!
