What area? I don’t agree with that. I’ve had the opportunity and privilege to be around quite a few of old school turkey hunters from the south. It was not common to hear, at all - if ever.

Same goes for the term “jake”, but it’s gained acceptance and widespread use in the last 20 years or so.

I am an old school turkey hunter, from the south, and I've called them Toms all my life.
So did my grandaddy and my dad and practically everyone else I know.

Toms or gobblers is perfectly acceptable in Jackson County. Lots of people I hear call them Toms are the older original turkey hunters that have been doing it ever since we had turkeys. Usually called “Them ol big Toms”.

Is a "Ol big Tom" the same as a PBT?
