Don't let the weather keep you from going. Learn how to hunt less than ideal conditions most effectively and be confident in your approach. I look forward to spring thunderstorms in a way that has made others uncomfortable. Not only do the fair weather laymen hunters leave all the birds for you. You also have in my opinion the BEST non turkey noise to locate a gobbler. Thunder is almost automatic. They can't help but rattle off a gobble. It makes them much more vulnerable and that's where most of my 3+ year old birds have come from.

"Fair weather laymen hunters" I like the sound of that! LOL

Killed my first bird ever to thunder. Don't remember how me and my dad first got on him but it was mid afternoon and a storm was about to blow in and every time it would thunder he'd hammer. I'll never forget the sound of that deep thunder rolling through that hardwood bottom. Every time I go in that bottom I can dang near hear that thunder and see that bird falling off that ridge!

Just last year I went out scouting one morning and it was supposed to rain about an hour after daylight. Started that rolling thunder again and that bird gobbled every single time. Had a perfect, "no interference" trail of which way he was walking. So a little thunder can be awesome
