Good luck shadow, have you taken a look at your ground on an aerial photograph? Sometimes if you study it enough and know what to look for, you can find spots that other hunters miss, or better yet find terrain features that you can use to intercept deer that other hunters bump. I've been hunting my public area for about 20 years now and have learned where to be at what time of year to take advantage of hunting pressure or doe bedding areas. It doesn't always get me into range but it puts be in a position to take advantage of the opportunities when they present themselves. I don't know the specifics on how large of an area you have, that would make a difference, naturally the larger the better, but if you work hard at it I think you can find where the does hang out. That puts you on the bucks!
