RE: I am tired...
Smack dab in the middle of that thick nasty stuff. When the orange army opens up, they deer will flock to the thickest most inaccessible cover they can find ---> right under your new tree stand! The option is finding a small strip of isolated cover that you would normally all but dismiss as unhuntable. I've seen deer get jumped out of the oddest places during our gun season in WI, right towards the end of the main rut normally.
