First I'd call the game warden and let him take care of the tresspasser on our farm... but playing along here...

If I had a good idea where they turkeys WERE, then I would try to figure out where they were GOING TO BE, and I would SIT myself there.

I realize this is kind of a well no sh*t sherlock answer... but thats what I'd do!

I'd be running-n-gunning until I struck up a bird if I had enough land to do so on. Sit and hope for the best if it is a smaller parcel of land.

I have lots or area to roam so I would go to my other spots and try and strike a bird and work him. Run and Gun with patience.

I have several back-up spots picked out in case this happens.My spots are private but a few other people hunt the same farms.If they beat me there,just drive to the other spot.
