They've been ripping it pretty good in west central Missouri. The wife has been watching a group of about 10 sorting each other out every morning. 33 days and I'll be knockin heads in Kansas!

They are hammering here already, they usually are by the 1st week of March anyway. Our season starts the 15th of March.

South Missouri theres a few going off. Toms are sorting out the pecking order and starting to mingle with hen groups.

I wish I knew! It would be nice to be in a place that I could hear. Youth season was last weekend already.

I haven't heard any in PA but some other people have. Plenty of strutting going on though. Gobbling is getting less and less each year. I hope they aren't done before our season starts this year.

Heard lots of gobbles in North Texas last week while pig hunting. Just a few hens were talking though.

I remember why I hate turkeys. I roosted 4 gobblers last night. Got set up within 200 yards of them this morning. Sat there for 3 hours with them hung up at 100 yards. They gobbled well over 200 times just strutting back and forth. Hens came by and took them in the other direction. FRUSTRATING!
Get 60 yds closer in the am if you can. Let em know your there then call very little. Sometimes that last 50 to 100 yds you can sneak in closer seals the deal.
