Default RE: first bowhunt in missouri

Where is the hunt going to be in Missouri? Is there water in the creek bed,, if not is there any water nearby?Is there heavy cover for them to bed in near the beans? If it were me, early season, I would watch the bean field a few evenings and see where the deer are coming into it, or walk the edges and look for a well traveled trail coming into the field from a thicket. Follow the trail back into the timber a little ways, and hang your stand downwind of the prevailing wind for the area... Thats what I would suggest for early season, and just filling a tag, later in the season,, just look for the does,, the bucks will be nearby.
