Drumming??

This is only my 2nd year turkey hunting but the 1st where I've heard drumming, and I've heard a LOT of it. I was just curious if anybody knew WHY turkey's drum? I know this is kind of a vague question, but is it like a deer blowing? Just kinda curious I guess.

The drumming is just another form of calling to the hens. One of the coolest sounds in the spring woods :way:

Yep! I'm also pretty sure that drumming hasn't been able to be explained. Kind of a mystery..... when u can hear that they are close
