This year , had a tom with a twelve inch beard gobble at my foot splash water
I had one gobble at me when I stepped off the road and crunched some dry leaves.  He hammered and I found a quick set up and had him flipping in just a few minutes.  He was hot!
Love to hunt the King of Spring!

Buddy of my nephew takes a rubber mallet and hits those metal guard rails along the side of the road.  He swears any bird in ear shot will gobble.

I had a bird on the roost gobble when a harley davidson was driving up a steep hill he gobbled once, then when the harley was going down the other side of the hill he gobbled. Those 2 gobbles where just enough for me to get close to him. I got him about 45 minutes latter.

An 18 wheeler hauling a dozer. Every time  he let off the air brakes a couple toms would fire off.

One of my personal current interests is nest predators and how a majority of hunters, where legal bait to the extent of chumming coons.  However once they get the predators concentrated they don't control them.

Backup alarm on a D9 Cat.  Best locator call I know of.  Just can't figure out how to carry one when I hunt.

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.

One more. I pulled a cold one out of my ice chest. When the ice fell back in its place he gobbled at. He was that close to my truck on side of the road.

I repeatedly yelled "Whose your daddy" at a strutting Merriam's gobbler at the entrance to the Crazy Horse monument a few years ago. He'd gobble every time!

Artillery Fire
I often hunt Camp Lejeune in NC and when they start firing the birds go quiet. However, Fort Stewart GA they gobble hard at Artillery.

Behind my house one gobbled when I was dumping dry cat food on an aluminum extension ladder rail when I couldn't find their food dish. They got fed well that day lol
