I went out this morning and the gobblers were hammering at the thunder from the roost..

Eventually they flew down and passed by within sight. I counted 14 birds in the flock, and not one responsive bird in the bunch.

By 7:30 I had enough when my bug spray started dripping in my eyes. Hunting in the rain is no fun to me.

Radar showed a line of showers and thunder storms at 3:30 am.. Figured I walk the mile, beat the storms and fall back on the blind if need be. Sitting in the area of mature red oak, I got in, reached for my bag full of tricks, to no avail. These turkeys here, refuse to gobble. The rain-lightning got pretty intense, so I moved my butt away from the lightning rods to the tent blind. Did manage to call in a hen with a tom, not far behind about 7ish in the pouring rain, passing not 20 feet from the blind. Low and behold, that tom was beardless. Believe by the looks, someone had shot the beard off. Had my eyes on this one for a long time, and would'ent you know it.
