Will they be back?

Went out this evening and as we were walking back to the truck we accidently scared 3 toms out of the field. They were about 50 yards off a point feeding and id say 3-400 yards from us when they saw us. After they trotted behind the point i noticed a truck at the end of the field and they to were probably 400 yards away hunting at the other end. I heard the other guys calling at them after we spooked em so my question is, with your guys' experience, would it be worth setting up there tomorrow night or saturday night? how soon do you think theyll be feeding on that point again at night?

thanks

PS I have no time to scout it I only have 4 days left to hunt

Well odds are the other guys know right where the birds are at and will be there come morning at least I would be! I would go back and listen if know ones around move in and set up on em. Birds get spooked all the time in the woods and not just from humans they will be back in the field at some point but I wouldn't put all my eggs in one basket either, hopefully you have a plan B.

Good luck!

Hunt them as soon as you can. They cannot reason

I'd go back and try to get their early.  Who knows, maybe the other guys will spoke them towards you.  All it takes is one tom to head your way.

Try and get there early,  listen for them gobbling for their hens and try and beat the other people to them.  Your odd are that maybe one of them may want to cooperate.
