You trying to guess what a gobbler is going to do before dark. That is going to be a tough one.

A turkey doesn't know what he's going to do in the next 5 minutes. Trying to figure out what he will do tomorrow is pointless. The only thing you can do is look for patterns and hunt according.
What you do today, you have to sleep with tonight.

In my experience this year, on a 500acre lease. I know of 2 gobblers roosting near the same location every time I have hunted it.. knowing this bc it’s The only 2 I’ve heard. One I’ve heard work a group of hens in a circle of 200 acres give or take... and the other works the other half... I’m not 100% positive they don’t use more space but due to seeing and hearing and pics, I’m pretty close on the acreage of use that I’m sure of, at Another location I hunt without game cameras sorta been the same... Sunday till today from daylight till 7-7:30 they split up and go out away from where I hear them, but 9:30-10:30 they have all been coming back to where they start due to their hens doing what they do.. I’ve noticed at the second location it seems they each have a couple of hens a piece...and are using at least 100-150 acres... this is the only hunting I do outside of coon hunting so I pay a lot and I mean a lot of time and attention to them, take in mind groups of Jakes, boss toms, wild hens all will move turkeys this is just my experience on my places.. population prolly has the most to do with it i don’t know
