Gobbling was good yesterday. Heard 5 different birds. Ground gobbling was good till about 8. Best day I've had for gobbling so far

Haven't heard a gobble in over a week.  Glad to hear someone is hearing birds in VA.

Been hearing a few, heard 6-7 this morning, but they all want to stay in the timber.  The particular spot I was hunting is a cow farm with mostly fields, and all the birds pitched down in the woods on the neighbors side.  Killed a nice bird on an old logging road last week back in the woods, seems those are the spots to be this season.

Birds are staying in the woods. Have heard a few gobbles in am and an occasional in the  afternoon. Been my worst Va season in years. Changing strategies to woods hunting and ambushing by setting up in roost proximity.
Everyone wants to be successful - some just need help.

Went the last two mornings in SWVA and didn't hear a single bird morning or evening.

Birds till gobbling but day to day.  I had two gobbling good on the roost this morning, as well a late morning bird I managed to call across a river.  Gobbled his head off.
