I would try to find a rub line and hang a stand fairly close to it or close to any fresh ground scrapes,also look for any travels routes the Deer use and possibly put out a salt and mineral lick close to where You plan on Bow Hunting if legal in Your State?If You can use a Deer Decoy that would help draw a Buck in to You when it gets closer to the rut,rattling and using grunt calls or Doe calls will also better Your chances at getting a Deer in closer hunting the Big Woods with a Bow...trail cameras will also help in seeing where the Deer travel.I have seen that the Deer tend to follow Ridge Tops and/or they will skirt along the side of large hills and hollers so thats a good spot to set up a stand...if possible watch the Deer routes and move your stand if they seem to be traveling differently or further away from your stand...I have moved my stands when I saw that the Deer were coming out in a different area.
