Saw an article on twitter that helps determine the age of a turkey.
Just in case you ever wondered how old it was...
Spur Length = Age of Turkey
1/2 inch or less = 1 year (jake)
1/2-7/8 inch and blunt = 2 years
7/8-1 inch = 2+ years
1+ inch and sharp = 3+ years
1 ¼ + = 4 years
Beard Length = Age of Turkey
3-5 inches = 1 year6-9 inches with amber tip = 2 years
10+ inches = 3+ years
EDIT: Someone really likes to comment... this one caught my attention! I'm expecting a phone call from him any day now! I have no idea who Anonymous is though...

If the gamewarden is reading this... just know that I have poached 4 longbeards in the past two weeks. Also, I've shot two cows at random. Just FYI :)
