Default Crazy stand placement. Would you?

Have been hunting the land behind my house (we recently moved in) this year, and about a half mile back, I took a doe 3rd day of the season. Ive seen lots of sign, and have always figured the large thicket right by the driveway was a major bedding area for the dear. I've glimpsed a few bucks, and many doe in the area of my driveway, and right behind the house. we got our first snow this week. I went out that morning and noticed that every track I saw was heading to or away from the thicket. I also noticed a lot larger tracks and much more poop that first morning than I would have expected. SO.....I put a stand up Saturday, and sat their last night. I am close enough to the house, to see the wife and kids moving around in the kitchen. I can see the neighbor's driveway, and I am only about 30 yards from the edge of our backyard. I feel that this is the best place to set up to take one of these bucks, but it almost feels like cheating. What would you guys do?
