Default First time turkey hunter

I have been an avid deer hunter since my childhood, but i am trying turkey hunting for the first time. In Vermont the season starts 5/1. I took my nephew out this past weekend for youth hunt. We used a ground blind with 2 hen and a jake decoy. We had four hens come right into our setup on Saturday and 2 on Sunday. one old fat hen came running in to the decoys clucking away, the hung out feeding for about an hour. We never saw a tom or heard one the whole weekend.

i guess my question is is this a good setup? I always see toms with the hens, why not this weekend?
