I'm on a triple cornfield/hayfield array, and I have 3 areas of substantial sign.
Two are deer, one is an absolute turkey highway, 4 lanes each way.
I set up for the deer depending on wind. It's usually from the southwest, so I set in to a pocket just below the crop border in some hemlocks with a wide field of view and darkness to my back. Makeshift blind of sorts.
IF the wind is playing funky with me, I'll set in a tree about 50 yards west of there, come in from the north, over a creek crossing (only place that can be crossed for a half mile each way), and sit in the acorn patch.
For the turkeys, I just climb a tree in the middle of the path and wait. They respond to my kee kee run well, and I had them at 15 yards last weekend, but in my super jittery first turkey gotta shoot it now hopein I don't miss...yep...I missed.
