I HUNT RIGHT ON THE ALABAMA TENNESSEE STATE LINE CLOSE TO ARDMORE IN AN AREA I HUNTED LAST YEAR. WE WORKED SEVERAL BIRDS LAST YEAR, HARVESTED 5 TOTAL AND BY THIS TIME LAST YEAR WE WERE HEARING TOMS GOBBLE EVERYTIME WE HUNTED. THIS YEAR WE HAVE HEARD VERY FEW TOMS AND HAVE ONLY TOOK ONE BIRD, WE CAN'T EVEN SHOCK THEM INTO A GOBBLE YET ...WE ARE SEEING A NUMBER OF HENS AND HAVE SAW 3 DIFFERENT TOMS BUT THEY SEEM TO HAVE LOCK JAW ..I WAS WONDERING IF ANYONE ELSE IS HUNTING EXTREAM SOUTH TENNESSEE OR NORTH ALABAMA AND IF YOU GUYS ARE FINDING THE TOMS VOCAL OR ARE THEY THE SAME WITH YOU AS THEY ARE WITH US? WE HAVE TALKED ABOUT IT AND BELEIVE ITS ITS COOLER THIS YEAR AND THAT MIGHT BE HAVING AN EFFECT ON THE BIRDS ..GIVE ME YOUR REPORT ....

I'm hunting East Tn... The birds up here are blowing the woods down on the roost, but when they hit the ground, you don't hear a peep from them the rest of the day. I was lucky enough to take one opening morning, but nothing else. Good luck too all!!!
