Default Iowa Turkeys

What is everybody seeing in Iowa right now?? I went out last Sunday and heard many, many, many birds gobbling and actually got caught too close on a total of 5 mature Toms and their hens all within 40 yards. I had to lay flat on my belly and wait them out until they were out of sight. I did no calling of course and all the Toms were in full strut following hens. Gobbling cut down after the birds hit the ground. I had one of the Toms sneek up on me and got within 5-6 yards (did not spook him). Can't wait until this weekend, I am taking my nephew out for the youth hunt. Mine starts on Monday the 11th.
