Being as I rarely get to hunt mornings and usually get off work at 2 or 3 PM, I only get an hour or 2 of actual hunting time so I place mine at field edges so I dont scare everything out of the woods before I get in my stand, and because of your topic, its my favorite way to hunt, watch the deer interact with each other, think about stuff, and watch squirrels do amusing things. I do have a few in the woods between feeding and bedding areas for the rare days I get to hunt all day.
