Not a problem until you are 400 yards off of every road, that leaves you a small 800 yardX800 yard section to hunt smack dab in the very center of that square mile. Hope you are lucky to find the handful of spots that will allow you a good stand set up. I know all the areas I hunt, those areas are in the middle of corn and bean stubble

One of our state representatives up north, can't remember her name right now, proposes a 100 yard limit every year and gets shot down every time. Thankfully you and I live in a state wise enough not to set a minimum distance, most hunters are smart enough to check for houses before hunting a property, and they recognize that fact.
