I have heard them gobble in the summer like this as well. I was fishing two years ago and heard one gobble 50+ times. I was in a boat and made a few turkey sounds by mouth only and he came to the bank and strutted and gobble for atleast a hour. My buddy with me was amazed. I have also saw them strut with patches of snow on the ground in bow season. Funny stuff. I guess they are like most males take it when ever they can get it and if not at least they try! :D

I've only heard one gobble like that in the summer. I was 10 and was squirrel hunting with my dad. I have heard them gobble during deer gun season like it was going out of style, though. Last year about that time I was wishing I had a mouth call and a shotgun, but then I realized it was November and ol' split-toe was out and about...snapped back into reality pretty quick :D

2 years ago on the first day of OH fall season my buddy and I set up blind before sunrise and I did some soft yelps, then a flydown cackle. The woods erupted with gobbles and they flew right into our decoys...it was like April all over again.

I have heard birds gobble several times in the fall, 4 or 5 years ago had three toms come into the front of me while deer hunting during the rifle season from a stand and one started strutting and stayed in full strut 40 yds for a good half hour or better, had hens come in behind me, I guess he was showing off for those hens but he never gobbled at them or anything. The other 2 toms just scratched and eat, and so did the hens.

It has been at least 5 or 6 years ago, but I heard one gobble several times on the ridge above me while I was hunting the December ML deer season. I just thought that was very wierd to hear one gobble like that in December. I have heard gobbles a lot in late summer but never in the fall and only that one day in the winter.
