Default Nephew gets first turkey

I took my nephew on the youth hunt yesterday morning. It was his first time to go turkey hunting and he was able to shoot a 13# jake. He was very excited over that but what got me excited was that when we stepped out of the truck about 30 min before legal shooting light(not far to walk) we heard gobblin. I don't know about everyone else but I have never heard them gobble that early. And it wasn't just one or two gobbles these birds were hammerin. We couldn't do anything with these birds as they had plenty women but we were able to call in the jake later in the morning. I guess it will go down as one of my all time favorite hunts and I didn't even have a gun.
