ol tom

got a bird that gobbles at everything but a hen call, any advice on what to do

Don't use a hen call lol scratch in leaves

post a video of you calling on here so we can all hear what you sound like ...

i dont know how to post videos and i have scratched in the leaves... i know how to call i would say if i did not

Figure out where he's going and arrange a meeting

He has probably heard a whole lot of fake hens in his life. Don't dare yelp at him. Just give him a few soft clucks and then scratch leaves. And as already said, get where he wants to go. The soft clucks are mainly just so you can claim you called him.

Use a gobble call after the clucks/scratching leaves.

I have had some success with stubborn birds by just utilizing a wing at fly down. Set up is critical.

I did a wing at fly down. Sounded damn good but guess he didn't like it enough

I have the same problem

Hunt another bird.

Fighting purrs with some real wing action on the side of a tree.

Some gobblers, on some days, are just gonna stand around and make everything come to them. It's safer that way. And that attitude helped them grow older.

On one like that I let him fly down and walk off do not call to him til he is away from his roost area. Once he is gone I go to about where he was rooster and turn it loose. Have had several come running back answering every call when before hand they would not gobble for 15 minutes when called to.
