Too cold?

[woodsman2230]

Tomorrow morning I am planning on getting up and listening for gobbles. The weather channel said that the temperature is supposed to be around 32 degrees. Is that too cold for the turkeys to gobble?

I'm not sure. I've heard turkeys gobble in the dead cold winter month of January. If the mating season is as close as we hope it is, then they might be gobbling.

You may not hear any, but I have heard them gobbling in the deer rifle season here in PA. I think you might though, the mating season probably started by now. By the time our season starts, most hens will be sitting on nests. I seen polts already in the second week! Maybe weather has more to do with it.

Just got back from a short walk behind the house. Not too cold for the turkeys, but it is for me.. We heard 2 birds gobble about 6 times. And then shut up on the ground.

I have heard them gobbling at 30 degrees but they seem to gobble best at about 50. Good luck!

I heard a couple this morning and it was around 34 degrees then.

I haven't heard any gobbling yet, but I did see about 30 birds in the field this AM with 3 strutters. It was 19 here.

It was in the low 30s this morning and I heard 4 gobblers on the roost.

A couple years ago a buddy and me took a double on opening day of bow season it was low 20's or high teens and light snow. They gobbled some but not alot.
