Default Anyone in or near Tompkins County NY?

This is my first turkey hunting year, and i'm loving it thus far. The only problem is given my situation (being new to turkeys, and needing someone to show me the ropes, and basics, and my M-F work schedule), I can't go out as much as I want to.

Currently I've been going out with my co-workers boyfriend who has been turkey hunting his whole life, and we run across a LOT of turkeys, but under unlucky situations resulting in no shots taken. So I go out every Saturday morning with him,a nd he takes me around his spots (in and around Brooktondale), and is showing me the ropes, and its been great.

BUT I want to get out more, but do not know of any good spots around me, and given that I've been hunting his spots, I didn't do any preseason research on Connecticut Hill which is the closest and largest state land next to me. I wanna be able to go out and hunt until they come off their roost, and then head to work (during the weekdays).

Anyone know of any places in and around Tompkins county, and even places to try out on Connecticut Hill. But haven't really been in there yet, so I'm unfamiliar with exact details about that place.

Thanks!
