I really think the turkey season is over here in North AL. I haven’t heard a gobble in over a week, and only 3 gobbles all year. It’s been a very strange year. What do you think?

I think it's over in the whole state. Been hunting them for 26 years and this is the worst year for gobbling. Hunting 4 different counties. Had pics of toms strutting in Jan/Feb, headed to TN next weekend and hope they are doing better than here.

One of my hunting buddies decided the same thing, he went to Tennessee and hunted daylight to dark for 4 straight days. Heard 2 gobbles. Robinhedd

Nah tthey gobbling good!

Not gobbling. The one I know we have in our pasture was with hens Thursday Friday and yesterday. Strutting showing off. I was out early before daylight Thursday and Friday no gobbling but he’s there. Sure hope he survives the road hunters. We need a breeder left in the area. Probably more than we see but who knows. This morning hens only so he’s piddling somewhere else for now.

We heard 6 on Saturday morning. Killed one at 11:25 and he never stopped gobbling.

Heard 4 yesterday and walked away from one gobbling at 8:30 to go to church.

All of them still had hens with them.

ETA: Not in North Bama

My Turkey season has pretty much been over. Haven’t had a truck for 2 weeks and even if I get it back this week, it ain’t looking good.

No gobbling all season really. Iv killed 3, only one gobbled twice. Only had one other bird that I didn’t kill gobble maybe 100xs Then a few random gobbles here and there. Been even worse for last 3 weeks. Definitely the worst gobbling iv heard in 32 years in se al. Seems to be less gobbling every year I think they are changing, adapting or evolving. Whatever you want to call it

Progressively gotten worse the last 4-5 years for me.

Not in the 4 N Al. county’s I hunt. Maybe not what I’d like it to be, but I’m out here most mornings.
Southern Tennessee birds were gobbling all day last week, 20 miles over the line. Headed back up there later this week.

On another note I hunt large tracts of private property. Me and dad are the only ones that hunt them. I know all the large surrounding land owners. Very little pressure on any of it. So I can’t chalk mine up to pressure. I rarely hear a shot or see trucks at the gates. Some properties are over run with birds. Some have almost none. And some large flocks literally disappear before season. I have no idea where they go

It’s not done. They still henned up on my lease. They’ve just now started gobbling on the ground. Killed one Saturday and called in another one to 40 Sunday.

Gonna have to kill some “doe” to many of em… got to get that ratio back down

Its just now starting to pick up. If anything I'd say late spring this season plus nasty weather has them 2-3 wks late this year.

Nah, had 5 hammering Sunday about mid day. Wife missed one Saturday morning gobbling

Been a weird one for sure but I’m betting more in too many Jake’s whooping up the longbeards. Been seeing single hens for 4 weeks or so. Some nesting early and others are still together but running with jakes. Very little gobbling for most I’ve talked with. LBs have been spooky and I assume because they been getting whooped.

Least amount of action I’ve ever had.

It ends when the state says it is no longer legal to kill one. I got on a hot bird Easter Sunday. Long ways off but answered every time I yelped. I must have helped a real killer get into position because I heard the shot that ended the show. Been silent ever since except one crazy bird that has been fooled with by several hunters. Has been easy to sleep in a few mornings this week. But I will be trying til the end!
