Here's another 2 cents worth. As already mentioned, I would advise a careful inspection of the trails that the deer are frequenting to/from the food plot. My experience here in SE Al. is that the deer will usually frequent only a few trails in/out of a food plot. If you get lucky you might find where 2-3 trails come together just before reaching the plot. In general that is a great location to set-up for archery hunting. If you can, set up more than one location so that you might take advantage of wind direction. Or be able to select hunting more than one trail system. For sure down this way, locating one stand which faces the trails from generally N-NW works out pretty good because cool fronts generally bring N-NW breezes. I try to set up within 15-35 yards of the trail(s), and usually am off the food plot 20 or so yards. Maybe even farther, depending upon the trail system. One food plot near which I have taken several nice deer over the years, I set up about 75 yards off the plot, where the deer have for decades filtered into the food plot from the woods. On some plots that I hunt the deer have become extremely predictable and on these I hunt only one general location, and very close or on the edge of the field. So "experiment" with the location might be the only decent advise I could give. After all, I have never been "right" not even nearly every time and have ended up moving my climber, lock-on or ladder stand more than once during the season .... not a big deal. Just work.
