You'd be surprised at what hangs out near roads!
I had a lease a few years ago, that we put a stand up on a high-line right-of-way at the last minute before deer season. the highline paralleled a highway. There was a strip of woods, about 300 yards long, and only about 150 yards (at most) between the highline and the highway. I have never seen so many good bucks in one area! I guess that they felt safe, with all the hunters going deeper into the woods!
