Default RE: Key to success on public land?

I hunt several old clear cuts .
In 1 there are 3 trees that I can hang a stand in 200-300 acers.
So I hunt out of ground blinds that I make up in my pre season scouting .
All the other hunters skirt the edges ,I have never seen another hunter in the thick stuff.
I play the wind and use hill sides for elevation.
Deer seam to relax in the thick stuff .
Find or cut a few shooting lanes pre season and enjoy.

I am going out in a few weeks to cut shooting lanes for a new stand .
The deer will probely be using them as trails by season.
