Hey Duder. And they still can't figure out how they make the noise! First time I got slipped in on and had one spitting and drumming behind me in some thick stuff but I couldn't figure out what it was. I was a greenhorn. Ended up walking out the field towards the logging road calling every 100 yards. No gobbling all morning. I was on yellowbanks public down in Kentucky. I turn around and there's a big ol tom standing right where my deke was staked. His neck was craning to find the hen. I tried to get down on the edge and set up but he busted me. Looked like an ostrich running off.

When you don't hear much gobbling listen for phttttt hummmmmmm and leaves shuffling. How about the other gobbler vocals too I have heard them cluck and make a so called tock. Seems like they do it when they don't see the hen and are a little jacked up. Not to be confused with putting, a horrible noise to hear in the turkey woods. Sorry for the long winded reply I got turkey fever!
