Default Hunting Small Acre Plots (new Picture Panned out)

[align=left]Alright I have been hunting this 2 acre plot here in hortonville for 3 years now i have seen deer but never got a shot. the man who lets me hunt it sees deer therenightly and it is planted soy bean in that field this year. anyone who hunts small acres plots with success could you help me get my first deer of this peice of land. i have been trying for a while with no luck. i have a ladder stand out there. it is marked with the red dot on the map. the big line on the back going up and down is the boundary line. the line coming across that one is a deer funnel out of a swamp. and the other two lines are my walks in depending on the wind that day.[/align][align=left][/align][align=left]BTW thanks for everyone who helpedme with the map appericiate it.[/align]

I would have a stand down near where the trail crosses the boundary line. The deer are gonna like to enter that field in the corner in the evenings. Hope for a wind out of the East or South, even North is OK if you don't let them get into the field.

Check out the inside corner!!

Get in there, quiet,before daylight, and sit it out.

Where are you seeing the deer? Are they just out of range or traveling else where other than where your stand is?

Logic says to move toward the deer unless they are scattered about and that's why your not getting the shot.

That said, I agree with jmbuckhunter and would place a stand on that inside corner.

Early season when it is still super hot that pond is going to see some traffic. Can you pan that picture back and show us the land around it.

here is a more panned out picture but remember i only have permission up until the field and like 5 people hunt in that little bit of field they do like a rotation in stand and i can see half of them but i never know when they are going to be there. so it is kind of alottery Rob/PA Bowyer the deer usually come out from behind me go out into the fieldguy feed and then come back in the sameway but i have tryed to put a stand over there and they some how knew exactly where i was and busted me. so i moved it back and they didnt know. but they are about 40 yards away behind me so i cant risk the shot behind me at 40 yards. but here is a new picture panned out more and i could see if i could talk to the guy who owns that and get out there father it cant hurt to ask right...the worst he can do is say no.
