April 26 (Thursday)

I get out of work a little early that beautiful afternoon (the weather was TERRIBLE in between) and run wide open to get up there for a short afternoon hunt. I talk to the landowner for just a minute and he said he had seen him around mid-day in one of the pastures nearby gobbling like wild, again all alone like always. I had no idea what I was gonna do as I had never heard him gobble in the afternoon a single time. Based upon where he had seen him, I just went to one of his favorite roost hollows and got sat down and hid around 5:00. I did some light calling and leave scratching and never heard or saw a turkey of any kind.
