First afternoon in public in Tennessee for me today, wish they’d let us hunt til dark in Alabama. Haven’t heard a gobble since 6:30 this morning but maybe one will come in silent. Light calling every 20 minutes and keep waiting. Winds starting to pick up

I heard 3 yesterday, in super earlier today, nothing! 4 of us on 1800 acres and no one heard a thing! 10 on 7000 acres and from the reports I got, not one gobble heard. Allegedly. 😉

I don’t know about y’all but the birds I’ve been working have been super henned up this year. I’ve gotten several pictures of gobblers sticking with their hens all hours of the day and evening. I keep thinking at some point they will break away but it hasn’t happened for me yet. I haven’t found one lonely and looking yet. I’ve seen around my place with hens all day long, and then I’ve seen groups of gobblers still together some days…

Heard one at 1.3 miles away clear as day from a good ridge. Got over here and he gobbled a few more times since flying down but I think he’s got ladies. Was able to get him fired up enough to pinpoint his exact location. Got my son set up on him at about 100 yards. I backed down the hill about 60 yards and got his hen fired up enough to come investigate. They got close, but my son said he didn’t have a clear shot. I trust his judgement. The dang thing pitched back up into a tree at 7:45 and strutted, gobbled, spit n drummed, and put on a heck of a display from 65’ above us in a 90’ pine tree. Never seen one do that before. His hen flew the creek and when she did, he dropped back down with her and wandered off gobbling his head off. Bet he gobbled between 150-200 times with a hen within 10-20 yards of him the entire time.

He would go from one end to the other gobbling and strutting on a limb… never did get to kill that bird
