The boulder was eventually dubbed Gobbler's Rock after the turkey hunter.

Does the turkey hunter gobble himself? Perhaps a hunter can tell me if they make "turkey call" doodads kind of like the "duck call" thingies? That, or the rock was named after the hunter's prey, not after the frekin hunter!

Sorry, I'm in a bad mood and feel like being nit picky.

I'm not a hunter, but I do know such things exist. http://www.american-hunter.com/turkey/turkey_call.htm

Yes, they make, or used to make, turkey callers. A friend had one along with a record (a 78 no less) of calls and how to make them.

Yeah, they make turkey calls. Mostly lonesome hen calls though...to lure ol' long beard in. (vbg) But there are calls that mimic a Tom's gobble too.....

FWIW-
