I have a section that is off limits until the rut, but i can get in and out with a deer knowing.

If you can do the above I say hunt it.

Here is my belief on plots these days. Unless you are hunting an area with little food they are worthless. Deer have so many options on what to eat around me, they hardly even touch them. The reason the seem to work is when we watch the shows and see a pile of deer in them. What they don't show is the deer have over browsed entire section they are in, and need the plot to survive.

I have found cover is best for my area, and our farm is loaded with it now. I have shot 4 mature deer in 5 years since putting more cover out.
