RE: Need help in stand location
I know this will be kinda vague , but w/o intimate knowledge of the area , can only suggest starting point(s). Anyway , here it goes. Deer are edge creatures and habitual for the most part. As a general rule in the am I' d approach any stand from the opposite road according to the map , the pm stands may be approach able from fields well in advance of any expected movement by the deer. You will need to scout, see if you can get an aerial photo of the area. Locate the thickest areas and scout frrom fields towards them, I personally would avoid entering likely bed areas close to season.Scout them in winter after the seasons end for the next year. Locate good trails, I' d start along the edge of the corn, you' ll probably find heavier trails in that corner. If you can find a lone appletree or good oak stand or the like along one of these trails it would be aplus. Again this is only a starter and may need tuned as season progresses. Try to get between the beds and food( I like to set up in the last sign area before the beds) This helps to see them when you have good light.If they' re in early fall feeding patterns sometimes field edge stands are the ticket in the pm.If you' ve bounced a big one he may stay gone for a while if you jumped his bed, that' s his secure zone and it has changed. He will probably return if the area gets little to no pressure.It may be a matter of time. well that' s my two cents for what it' s worth, Hope it Helps.
