I hear ya about only one way in. I have that problem too. If your neighbors are cool, I would consider entering your stand(s) in various directions, while keeping the wind in your face and minimizing your foot print (human scent) through the majority of the woods. I have been hunting for years and I am just starting to realize just how significant wind is. If the wind isn't right, don't role the dice and see what happens you'll only educate them more. Save the stand for the right wind. Wind plays ALOT bigger role than what alot of hunters think it does. Now, I get super excited when the wind is right for a stand that I haven't hunted in a while. There's nothing saying you can't climb the fence, if it's not too high to climb with your weapon of choice. There are some good strategies that can be used in this piece, that is, if your neighbors are cool.
