[@gabrielkidd9052]

[@charlieh7869]

That was a wild gobble about 8:20 longest and strangest I’ve ever heard

[@raymondfox8550]

Now just saying,, I love them kind,,,Fun,Fun, 🤞👍🙏🤫👌👊

[@gavobrown]

8:10 he sure gave that gobble all the air he had.

[@eddiepalmer796]

Pinhoti Dave That was the Best ever ! I couldn't wait for the next chapter . I have met a few of those and they are the best and the worst !

[@farmboy2848]

Mighty fine cigar.! I enjoyed that

[@abowhand]

Great hunt, thanks !

[@rodneyharouff5739]

all turkeys are crazy in my book. that's why i love 'em i guess!

[@rogerhook8002]

This is the best kind of turkey.

[@citylineman1]

Thats a man gobble at 8min 10sec. Congratulations on catching up with him. A Hill bird stud.

[@samzimmerman639]

That's good stuff right there

[@chrisharris2983]

8:10!! 😮

[@ShawnNichols79]

That gobble at 8:10 was the longest and hardest gobble I think I have ever heard! That was crazy

[@jerrymay1868]

That gobble at 8:10 was insane! Guess it fitted him😂congratulations what a great hunt! Thank you!!

[@Struttinhoyt88]

I said the same exact thing.

[@ShawnNichols79]

I just now seen your comment lol. I said the same exact thing in my comment! That was the longest and hardest gobble I have ever heard!

[@stevehalsey9031]

The gobble at 8:10 got me , I listen to it over and over !

[@mjc21706]

The 🐐

[@GMan-cp6sc]

Dang goodn Dave……. Congrats buddy

[@donaldgates2615]

You earned that cigar.

[@choochooman336]

At 8:10 he almost ran out of breath gobbling😂😂

[@rodneyharouff5739]

this is the real deal!

[@jimhayes3860]

Hey Man you put down more turkeys then the Butterball Company!

[@dapolease5660]

He kills more turkeys in 1 season than the average Turkey hunter will kill in a lifetime. His videos have changed how I now do things. If you notice when he hears a close random gobble or gets a reply, he doesn’t run for the closest tree and set up. He studies the terrain and the temperature of the Turkey and gets a game plan. Doing this has helped me tremendously. Something you gotta remember is Turkeys have all day to do nothing, basically. Slow it down, patience and woodsman ship brings in the birds.

[@farmboy2848]

No dought.. helped me slow it down and enjoy the process

[@flinginairos]

Man that’s so true. They have all day to do what they do. Over the past couple years I’ve also learned to slow down, take my time and make my setups count. Filling more tags than ever!

[@JohnHoard-xz5pw]

His job IS Turkey Hunting..... He's well funded and has unlimited time to travel and hunt. Add to that he is a competition winning caller and an accomplished woodsman.

[@markosborne2663]

Man that was a dream turkey. Surviving and playing the game with him must have been amazing. I have never heard a bird gobble like that. Check out around the 8:00 mark he did the longest gobble ever and still on the limb. Amazimg hunt

[@josephcioni5293]

'Flawless exit strategy!' Love your perspective!

[@TacoRios]

Only a matter of time before he slipped up. The bad thing is you can't chase him anymore. Congrats.

[@koelbel13]

What type of sight do you use?

[@aclawrence]

That gobble at 8:10!

[@rickannriccioni4334]

Wow!!! Absolutely fantastic trilogy!!! The best turkey hunting content on the internet anywhere, BAR NONE!!!!! Anyone who loves to chase turkeys and is not watching ALL of your videos is making a huge mistake. Thank you.

[@rodneyharouff5739]

damn fine hunt!!

[@GGGoutdoorsKingdomConnection]

That’s a BAD BOY son!!!! I mean BAD! My gracious he liked to gobble. Absolutely had my anxiety through the roof watching u do battle with him. Those ones are SPECIAL no doubt about it! What a turkey, and what a hunt!!! Thank u for sharing him with us!

[@BrandonBrown-nl9fh]

Thatn there will make you buy a pack of marlboro reds lol

[@Cogburnben]

This is probably my favorite 3 episodes in a row I’ve watched… this is the kind of turkeys you remember forever.

[@mattreynolds792]

I think the box turtle boosted your luck lol.

[@albertredding3333]

I ran into a bird like that a couple mornings late season '22 in Va. He easily gobbled 750 times both mornings I chased him. To my knowledge, he's still alive.

[@blackax6997]

Hey Dave. I was wondering how far you generally prefer sittin up on a roosted bird?

[@pinhotiproject]

As close as i can get is usually.

[@prestonduncan6340]

That how u get it done W00000000000.

[@palonghunter3608]

I almost, ALMOST that is. Feel bad for the gobbler. Playing chess with turkeys is the best.

[@John-yd2jm]

Congrats you earned it. Bad turkey. Dave I am in need of a new vest. Do you have one you recommend? I have had my eye on the alps impact in bottomland but I am not sure I would like the seat.

[@outofgas5293]

That's the ones that make it fun . Ol' Tom will make it personal sometimes .

[@birddogvet3728]

That was one of your best hunts and videos, Dave. Congratulations!

[@realrussclarke]

I hunted a bird 4 days he would go to his strut zone if you called. Day five I left the calls home an sneaked in real early. Watched him strut for three hours until he broke and walked past me at 15 yards… that was a BAAAADD turkey lol. Worth every hour learning him. Love this series of videos Dave thanks for your work.

[@scottwoods891]

What shotgun are you using? and what barrel length do u prefer?

[@psehunter33]

That joker had a pair of lungs on him. That one drawn out gobble made me laugh a little

[@jonathanpuls2489]

I love watching the hard ones. I know you hate deer hunting them, but sometimes that's what it takes.

[@strydershadow391]

Got a little sleep before the long drive and finally got that bird. Pretty good day I'd say.

[@jimhelfrich7245]

If I was a turkey in your neck of the woods I’d be nervous too.

[@relyoncornerstone1493]

The satisfaction along with the respect for the WILD turkey. It’s ruined me from deer hunting. Dave you both played the game well. Congratulations on a tough one

[@farmboy2848]

That gobble had drawn a lot of attention over his years.. keen ole bird that one. 🐐

[@owenblackman7001]

Dave you sure have inspired me. I have shot plenty of turkeys over the last few years here in NY. But this year I’m loading the truck up and heading for PA, and also OH to try and kill my first outta state gobbler. I hope you have a safe and enjoyable 2022 season.

[@kevinburnett3862]

That one deserves a whole box of victory cigars Awesome story and wonderful hunt.

[@rodneyharouff5739]

he's got a fine place ta live right there. been there & done this & got whupped many times. hahahaha! sleepin's real good in the turkey woods. woke myself up snorin' one time & there was a hen walkin' by @ 5 yds. hahahaha

[@mikemiller134]

It’s fun when you can find one that gobbles that much.

[@michaelbruns3870]

The putt-gobble gave me a chuckle

[@TheMatthewKline]

Those ones that are hard to kill but gobble like that are hard to forget!

[@mdnewton96]

Dave, when you looked at his spurs you said “that’s what I thought.” Does that mean he had some huge hooks? That’s what I thought

[@dougcounts3383]

Sometimes even a blind squirrel can find a nut. Lol Way to stick with him.

[@daviddaniel6666]

Awesome hunt!.

[@andrewlittle1645]

A turkey gives Dave owens the slip he better get his affairs in order, he’s on borrowed time

[@mattreynolds792]

Awesome video.congrats on a nice bird.

[@customhuntingarrows]

Mission accomplished! That was awesome. Pretty work

[@ghghamrick]

Seemed like the dumbest but smartest turkey I’ve seen filmed. Those public hill birds are a different breed, that’s for sure.

[@joshsinglefooter]

8:11..... the co "vid" turkey 😂😂😷. Awesome bird dave. I will say ive battled a turkey for the past 3 seasons. He goes away from every turkey call sound i make. Have you ever experienced one like it?

[@everythingoutdoors-vl9bl]

I LOVE tuff birds so rewarding once u get them!! unfortunately my boss gets pissed bc I take days off to continue hunting him

[@turks-n-tines8154]

Man when he first came up off the roost it actually got my heart racing ! I thought it was going down . What a great hunt. I never heard one putt then gobble at himself, that’s some crazy stuff. Congratulations on a tough ole joker 🦃

[@Mauispearo]

Congrats. Would’ve liked to see you call that bird in and match wits. Only way that bird was getting killed was ambush good thing he gobbled a lot

[@TRKYHTR1]

The headache turkey. Kinda has a nice ring to it.

[@brandoncorley1514]

Those are the ones that drive u crazy, and then when u kill them, u wish u could hunt him again the next morning!! Great hunt and show of perseverance!!👊👊👊

[@JasonBrown-iv6dg]

Great job of figuring him out!

[@arkyhunter2750]

With AR having such short seasons now that's one thing I miss is hunting a particular turkey, one you have a little history with. Might hunt one and go back couple weeks later and spend a couple days after him. Good hunt.

[@michaelberry8091]

That one time after fly down it sounded like he had a covid gobble. Never heard a turkey gobble and cough at the same time 😂

[@duckht183]

What a hunt Dave. Great work! My buddy and I had a bird like that this last season out here in California. My buddy hit him with an arrow, he lived, and it took us another month after that to get him with a gun. Ended up having to ambush him.. no calling, no decoy, no nothing.

[@rustywallace4596]

Congratulations man! It seems the ones that beat you a day or two become a mission. MISSION ACCOMPLISHED

[@rodneyharouff5739]

he's got his own agenda. we don't matter in this situation. they do what they do. always. ya know what zach farmer says about this.

[@robertsherman5428]

Those Toms Right there separate the Turkey Hunters and the Turkey Killers every time !! They are the reason we do what we do and love it so very very much so

[@kalebjordan5707]

I hunted one bird all season last year he gave me the slip every time but I finally figured him out last day of season he came strutting in to a hen that was feeding beside me and boom 💥 I got him he was one of my biggest birds I have ever got

[@danvickteam]

Contacts on your commitment to kill this bird. Sound is great

[@jayarps2596]

Way to stick with him Dave, congratulations on sealing the deal. Just goes to show even the goat can still learn from A bird. I’ve never heard A bird gobble at his own putt kinda nutty.

[@ssrhythm6923]

Well, I doubt I'll ever forget that turkey from just watching the video. I need to get that one out of my "now" brain and file him away in the back, because while that may be very useful and instrumental in getting some psycho bird at the end of my barrel one day, I can see it causing doubt, indecision, and mistakes on "normal" turkeys. What an unusual, super-sketchy personality and what an awesome hunt. Thanks for taking us along.

[@johnschultz6990]

Obviously the big ass green blind you built

[@curtissheffield4485]

These are the ones that will turn your hair gray but the ones u can't wait to go back too he is a slickster

[@ShawnNichols79]

I like turkeys to be different. It’s a lot more rewarding when it all finally comes together and kill him! Don’t get me wrong, I like them 2 year olds too but I like the challenge of a tough turkey and I don’t think there is such a thing as a “bad turkey”

[@bobreed711]

must be the frist turkey that got your wind ha ha.

[@reverend434]

I ain’t even gonna lie. When you shot him and first picked him up, I felt sad that it was over. That’s one I would’ve breathed life back into him if I could.

[@mikejustice2493]

Worthy advisery. Love hunting the ones that get under the skin and really make you think and work for that shot. Awesome job 👍

[@dwboat8]

Thought that one might gobble himself out

[@bigbuck2720]

Those are ones you will remember for ever, congrats on the gobbling fool

[@garyjacobs7342]

Again called too much. You said “ I don’t know what he’s putting at” he was putting because he knew he should see a hen.He pin pointed your location from over calling. That bird didn’t deserve to die like that. No different then shooting him out of the roost.

[@randysimmons6552]

I got after one like that back in the 90's. When I finally killed him, he had some very old #6 shot in his breast from where someone else had shot at him.

[@chris-1601eastern]

Was that a 2 year old? He didn't act like it.

[@patspangler2351]

Years from now you’ll forget the details about most of the turkeys that you are fortunate to take………not this one or tuff ones like him………lol

[@joshsinglefooter]

We need another video called "in the smoke" This one will just be about everything that encompasses after the shot. ( when the cigar get light)

[@rodneyharouff5739]

this is the real deal!
