Due to work(make-up games) I wont be able to get out until May 5& 6. This is my first year and I have a good idea of where the birds roost and what fields they are landing in. Should I still set-up in the same area, what about decoys and calls? This is my first year so I'm learning as I go any tips or tactics that work after the guns have been going off for a week and a half?

I would set up as close to them as possible. If they have hens with them, they might not come to you right away, so you'll have to be patient. If they walk off and you see which way they went, you could try setting up for an ambush the next day, or try to get in front of them to cut them off. I alwas try to get the Toms fired up first thing, kind of take thier temperature, see if they're frisky. If they do walk off and you feel like sitting there, a tom or two might come back in an hour or so. If you do this, call sparingly.

I like to call sparingly the entire time. I feel like the more you get them to gobble the better the chance oif them calling hens into them.
Private property? Set a blind up and set out some Deeks and spend the day. Don't call much just enough to let them know there's asexy lonely hen waiting just for them !
