get as far back as you can
I found this not always the case when hunting public land! I'll scout/hunt over looked patches of woods that most will walk right past because its not "deep enough" or "far away" from the truck! The deer will go were in there is the least amount of pressure, if nobody goes in these patches of woods the deer will! I have killed plenty of deer with my truck within sight! The #2 Wisconsin state record bowkill was killed a few yards off a dirt road and the Hunter was less than 10 feet off the ground! Why, because thats where the deer crossed the road everyday! I always check out the most overlooked spot, the most obvious, but not obvious to all!
youre right, not always the case. but a lot of the time it is. pick a place with low pressure, find funnels, do just like you would if it was your farm, but you have to dodge other hunters
