I'll leave you and the others to pick out your spots on your property. My advice is completely different. Go to your neighborhood/state parks that have deer and scout them out daily. The same spots and same areas you need to go over on a regular bases. Read and re-read the deer sign and become a custom to what fresh and old sign looks like. You'll get real good at telling the difference between fresh, few hours old, 12 hours and days. If you do this, your stand locations will fall into place. This will be really helpful come rut time. Not sure where you want to go, walk in quietly and find fresh sign and then climb just off the trail. Mature bucks are always traveling around looking for the fresh @#$%^&*%T#.
