I think you can have too many locations, but never enough stands. In the past, I've scouted some big parcels of land, came up with several locations, and had little success. Inow concentrate on fewer areas, with more stand sites in those areas, to play the wind. It's worked for me. It is nice to have options though, that's for sure. I agree with some others that over the years, you can really learn the lay of the land no matter how big it is.
