Default RE: OverHunting a spot

I hunt on 68 acres and right now I am hunting out of two stand locations. I have only seen deer from one of the stands and got a nice doe from it last Saturday. I have also hunted 2:1 ratio over the other stand and have seen deer from it every time I hunt it. The only reason why I have the other set up is I see tons of tracks around the other location and I know deer run that trail. Now here in another week or two when the corn is cut down I will set up another deer stand location, but I will still hunt old faithful.

I honestly feel that if you get in early enough to let things die down no matter if it is morning or evening, if the deer routinly use a path by your stand location they will still use it not matter how much you hunt it. It all depends on wind, movement of the deer that day and how quietly you can get in or out.
