Quote from: SinGin on May 03, 2016, 10:24:10 AMI'd like to knw also. I killed a bird a few years ago that was drumming but wasn't strutting, first time I had ever heard it. I heard it again this weekend. The bird would drum right at the end of his gobble but I never saw him to see if he was strutting or not. Maybe someone should make a drumming call. If they do I want 10%.

Although they are generally in strut, and seem to "shake" a bit when drumming the sound is not from their feathers. You can't get that sound no matter how you rub feathers together! Years ago when scouting on a very cold morning, I had a jake walk by close...and he was drumming. It was neat seeing his mouth open and his breath coming out during the drum.

Quote from: drenalinld on May 03, 2016, 02:40:36 PMIn my opinion drum part of the spit and drum is just a long drawn out version of the gobble. If one gobbles very close you can hear the chest drumming quickly. DRUM DRUM Drum Drum ..drum....drum.......drum
