I have 19 acres, entirely wooded and hilly (actually cut up with small creeks and ravines). The deer enter my property at 4 major points. I have stand sites at opposite corners of the land and could easily accomodate two hunters at the same time who could enter and leave the property and not even be aware of each others presence during bow season. In that terrain a gunshot from the opposite corner sounds like it is miles away. In the part of Illinois where i own land, one would be hard pressed to find many stands that arent within 300-400 yards of another on someone else's property.
