Shot this nice gobbler on the second to last day of my vacation!
I went to one spot and heard nothing, so I slipped into my spot behind some fields.
Made one series of calls, and heard one sound off below me! So I prepared to do battle, and as I'm calling to this bird, another one sounds off in the field! He comes to the center of the field with 2 hens!
He gobbles again, and another tom sounds off in the bottom! The tom in the field runs to that tom taking his hens in tow!
Now, I'm hearing nothing. I doze off and a goose sounds off and gets a gobble! I call again, and the big one in the field sounds off!
This time all 5 birds come in! I scratch in the leaves and they come in on a line strutting! He comes in, and I end his day!
20 lbs, 11" beard, and 3/4" spurs!

The good Lord ain't made a gobbler I can't kill.  I just gotta be there at the right time.....  on the day he wants to die.
