usually by the end of season gobblers have heard every type of hen call known to man and very wary of everything......So call sparingly and be prepared for a gobbler to make silent entry to your set up. Also helps to know where he wants to go and wait him out there.....

Good luck

I usually head to their strut zone and wait it out calling sparingly. Hope you get one.

You can do that or, last year I got a bird during Illinois' last season on ground that only 2 people had hunted on over the course of about 5 weeks. If you have land like that, I would head there. If not, head to a ridge where they like to strut or wait until mid-morning when he is done with first group of hens and wait for a gobble. Give a few yelps or clucks and a lot of times he will come running!!! Good luck man!!!
