I've hunted this particular area since I pretended to hunt lol at age 12 with a fiberglass recurve and field tip. Over the next 27 years I moved closer and closer to this CRP field that now holds my food plot. I used to set up in the hedge row, other end, in the woods and always watched the bucks walk this CRP field. It's a natural funnel. There is now 3 stands in different locals on the field and the particular tree, an oak tree offered the best cover and closest to the fine tuned funnel spot. All deer passing by in the field are under 75 yards and the main trail is 40 yards. A view from the tree.
Before: Last season
After: This season.
