Most people don't believe me when I tell the story, but about 5 years ago I saw a lone hen gobble a couple times. It sounded like crap, but she was definitely trying to gobble. Anyone else ever seen or heard one do it before? It was really strange.

No doubt, I have seen it and also seen them try to strut.
Don't gobble at me...

I have seen them strut and gobble. Had a hen gobble for 45 minutes at me in W.V. a few years ago. A bobcat finally ruined the fun that day. Granted, none of the gobbling hens I have heard sounded good but it was neat. Maybe just a coincidence but they have all been in late season.

I have seen them strut but never gobble. There are videos on YouTube of them gobbling.

I shot a bearded hen once.  I was really young and hadn't hunted turkeys more than a couple years.  I saw a turkey coming to us, and it fanned out in about half- 3/4 strut.  As it got closer, I could see the beard (8 inches).  I shot and killed it at 35 yards.  I had no idea I had killed a hen until we walked over to her.  I was just sure that i had shot a mature tom.  After all, i saw it half strut, and it had a decent beard.  Weird.
