It's very likely your ATV riding can push the deer out all together, it's hard to say.
Also, your likely to run into quite a few hunters the first year with a change of land ownership your prolly pressure on many sides with only 30 acres...keep the ATV to a minimal and keep the scouting up, the deer will let you know where to place a stand.
I am worried about the ATV scaring deer away, but i just can't resist the temptation to ride it. I've already been trying to receive permission from surrounding properties to hunt, but they all seem to be anti-hunters. Oh well, i probably won't gun hunt on the land just so they don't have another reason to gripe. Not a big loss since i have almost completly gave up gun hunting.Luckily none of them mind me riding my ATV so i don't have to worry about that.
