Default Field or Forest

I have a question about stand placement when bowhunting.

For the last couple of years my evening stand has been located at the edge of a large field. I' ve always had pretty good luck with this spot. It' s consistantly presented me with shots on decent sized bucks, however, none of them have ever been " monsters." I was recently reading an article that said the big boys hang out in the woods about 75-100 yards from the edge of the field until well after dark and then move into the fields.

Have any of you experienced this? Should I move a stand that' s been working for me, on the chance I might find something better? Was a big 8-10 pointer walking around behind me while I was sighting-in on the 6 pointer out in the field?
