I never hunt more than 10 yards into a woods. I leave the woods as a off limits area for deer only I feel that it keeps the pressure to a minimum. The deer will work their way to a field edge you just have to be patient. The bucks will run numerous scrapes along the field edges. It is also easier to hunt the wind being at a field edge. This is the way I hunt it is my preferred choice. Everyone will tell you something different but this works for me you need to find what works for you. Good luck
