Ha! The check station has us measure the spurs for the INDIANA department of natural resources in millimeters! What would 26 mm equal in inches? 1 1/4" or so?

A good reason why everybody doesn't hunt with blackpowder is they're already being challenged while hunting and don't want any more challenge. They probably are disgusted by all the cleaning we have to do too.

There are 25.4 millimeters to the Inch. A 26 mm spur would be very slightly longer than one inch- about a two year old bird in most locales. Regardless of age, or length of spur, its a very nice trophy, and particularly when you shoot it using a BP firearm. :hatsoff:
