Default RE: Stand location

I agree with TJ in that you need to place your stand on the other side of the driveway and maybe 10-30 yards into the woods off the garden. You say the red lines indicate heavy deer trails so I would be inclined to position my stand somewhere between those trails and the garden/field. Do you hunt mainly in the morning or the afternoon? In the afternoon, you will catch the deer along those trails probably heading to the fields/garden and if you hunt in the morning I would position my stand a bit deeper into the woods to get them coming off the fields at first light.

Good luck. BTW, a satellite image or google earth image would be better, but I like your sketch just fine. Brings back memories of sketching hunting areas on napkins, in the dirt before a drive, etc!!
