Maybe the real reason the turkeys arent gobbling is because of the coyotes, not the hens.

Ahh gotcha gotcha...I've had em gobbling on the ground as well but hunted places with a ton of coyotes and they were a lot less vocal on the ground...maybe I just get so close on the roost is why even if they have hens, they still gobble...but coyotes do have an impact

that is how my buddies place is, it is 1300 acres all clear cut surrounded by hardwoods so maybe 1000 is clearcut and the rest hardwoods. We know it has over 15 gobblers but we have yet to hear one this year but we do see them
