Not too good. 1 bird gobbled 2x. I got set up. Never heard him again. I think the wind got him. :roll:

I have a couple of memories of April 1st weeks cold blast with wind and going to only hear 1 or 2 gobbles at most.
Hunt the afternoons where you heard them gobble that morning around 4:00. Scratch leaves and cluck and purrrrr....
