At least around here, the deer use the cornfields as much for cover and bedding as anywhere else when it is standing. I will hunt the edges at known entry and exit points of the fields while it is standing. Even mature bucks and does feel safe in the standing corn and will get up and move earlier in the evening and later in the morning. I have had pretty good success, but the time to hunt them is usually pretty short as the season starts in late September and the farmers usually pick after just a couple of weeks of season. I clear a lane just about 5 feet wide out 20-25 yards. It's amazing how often they will stop ina lane like that.
It is a corn year here too
