Had one gobble 3 times on the roost. The last time was to answer me. I'm changing tactics this morning and instead of chasing after him I'm going to see if he'll come back to me when he gets lonely.

The bird I was waiting on finally sounded off, cut me off and I thought I was in the game. Heard a hen off to my left and guess where that joker went.... there was a couple other birds close by so I’m gonna wait it out as I’m right in the middle of them.

Only heard two on the roost and finally got on one that stopped gobbling but ultimately led me to another bird. He was on my neighbors property in and old food plot right on the line. I made a big loop and got set up over the hill from him about 125 yards away. Took him about 5 minutes to come over the hill looking and he was drumming and gobbling the whole time. Killed him at 30 yards. #3 for me and the 5th bird off the farm so I’m done unless I can get my son another one. Been a great year!

Heard 3 2 were way off the bird we been hunting will not leave his hens to come check things out. He gobbled 20-30 times on the roost maybe 5 on the ground.
Would walk over a naked woman to get to a gobblin turkey!

It’s getting to be like a broken record for me. He gobbled hard. Came most of the way. Wouldn’t come on in. I reckon I’m going to have to borrow someone else’s turkey if I’m gonna get my pitcher made with one this spring.
