Well, I got out after work, and it was already daylight. Two birds were gobbling like fools on a nearby property. I got zero respose where I was. What suprised me was that I heard no shots!

I heard three shots. A double and single.
I only heard one turkey gobble - I think. The noise from I 64 was terrible this morning. I have to wear hearing proetction and I use electronic muffs. They do a good job in amplifying gobbles, but they do too good a job amplifying every truck, car and motorcycle going down the highway.
I left the woods at 11am with no sightings.
Woodmaster stuck it out and I haven't heard from him yet. I'm sure is he had "bagged one" I would have heard about it by now.
Tomorrow is another day.. ;D

I heard 3 shots this morning and had one trespasser walk in on my setup while a bird was coming in. I was so mad. That gobbler was just hammering with triple gobbles..the whole works. Oh well. Heard a bunch of gobbles elsewhere also just nothing to show for it. Maybe tomorrow morning.

Matt - got one in Parke County this morning so that place is all yours unless Joe wants to go down one day. Lots of birds but there were only two shots I heard all morning and one was mine.

The only shot I heard(other than my own), was about 6:20, when it was still dark.

I heard three shots yesterday morning and one, my father yesteday evening. Apparently there were also at least a couple of people hunting the section of HNF near the house and they shot twice yesterday but I didn't hear them. So there was a total of 6 shots yesterday and another two this morning counting mine.

Nice job HP!!
Well, I scewed up this morning. Decided I'd go right back where I was calling in that bird yesterday morning. Well, it just so happened the tom was sitting in the tree next to the one I was setting up under!! Gone. Oh well again. 2nd time I've set up under roosted gobblers LOL! I chased a couple around this morning, but they were done gobbling by 730! Dang season is too late I tell ya. They were fired up a couple weeks ago.
