Good luck silencing one!

I'm growing concerned over the population in this area after the resurgence of bobcats, but also some difficult environmental conditions in recent years. I'm see very little sign from turkeys, and other than opening weekend, it's been DEAD out here.
I'm with ya jesse. Haven't heard a gobbler since Saturday of youth. We don't have bobcats (yet) but foxes are making a comeback.
 
If I wasn’t so dumb I would have killed this stupid thing over and over. He’s given me every opportunity. I just can’t “deer” hunt for turkeys. I want to call or spot and stalk. If I would spend a day just sitting there quietly he would be dead. He gobbled twice on the roost and when he flew down I thought he joined others in the bottom so I made a circle to try to get on them. As soon as I got there I get this pic where I was sitting.
