Would you rather hear drumming or gobbling?

Drumming, means he is close, and no one can hear drumming as far as gobbling. Gobbling means he's looking, hunting for a hen. Drumming means you're in his bubble. When you are in his bubble he is more vulnerable. A soft call and keep your gun up!

It would have to be drumming for me as I have never heard it.  I have watched many a turkey strut and shake and know for a fact he is drumming, but just cant hear it - or feel it.  I have several friends who claim they can actually feel drumming in their chest. 

I actually feel like I am being cheated out of one of the coolest parts or turkey hunting.  Don't get me wrong, gobbling is one of my most favorites sounds in the world - but just once would like to get to experience drumming.

Anyone here tried the new hearing devices specifically for hunting and even specific to different types of hunting?

   Most definitely spitting and drumming for me. Like already mentioned previously I think I'm in his wheel house and he's feeling comfortable and he thinks it's just a matter of time before he sees his lady or ladies. If he's still gobbling in my experience where I hunt he is being more impatient demanding the hen come on so they can move on. I hunt tough pressured birds only. Usually when I hear him drumming it's just a matter of time because I know he's totally committed and more relaxed. It's the same when he goes quiet. Most times he's carefully looking and peeking looking for the ladies. Whereas I've had birds come in gobbling a hundred times up in my face but I couldn't see them. They passed right on through gobbling away and then farther and farther away. Nothing you can do in that situation really but try and cut them off.. But the other two you better have that gun up and safety off and pray he don t circle behind you.lol

If you are lucky enough to hear the drumming, HE'S CLOSE TO YOU! But I love the tones and sounds different gobbler's gobbles. You know what I mean??

.  Hearing drumming is awesome , it's "for me " more of a feel thing for lack of better terms .
But a gobble is what I love to hear more then anything .  Back when we had a choice of gobblers to go to , I'd pick out the one whom sounded the oldest , more rattle , or deep toned gobbles etc , but nowadays, I'm lucky to just hear one ... sadly

Nothing like the sound of the wild turkey gobble !!!!

But, I'm assuming you are talking about a hunting situation.   In that case.........gimme drumming ALL DAY LONG.  Drumming is the sound of a bird that's about to die.

Gobbling to get me excited, then drumming to put me away.
