This morning my dad and I had at least five gobblers around us gobbling from first light for about an hour. None would answer our calls or come any closer. Anyone have tips that could make tomorrow morning different for us? Thanks.

Try throwing your calls to make it sound like the hen is moving around.

The gobblers probably aren't "hung up" but rather are with hens already.... which really complcates the hunt! Try to anticipate where they travel after they fly down and set up there in an attempt to ambush them as they move, hopefully one of the birds will see your decoy and tear off and give you an opportunity.

Along with your calls try leaf scratching with with your hand. Makes the sound of turkeys scratching for acorns and bugs..
That can convince a lot of gobblers

Split up. One of you needs to back out 50 yards or so until you hear the other guys gun go off.

If you can hear hens calling, start mimmicing her every call. If she clucks you cluck if she yelps you do the same. When you get her fired up start cutting her off. You will get her to come looking for you to whip the back talking hen and she will drag the tom with her. That has worked for me many times.
