I think MountainHunter hit is right on the head. I hunt a lot of ridges and after two years on a certain piece of land I am just starting to figure out how to hunt them. I think with ridges you have to really watch the wind and have more stand options and only hunt certain ones when the wind is perfect. We have a few spots that we get lots of trail cam pics of big bucks but never seem to see them when we hunt it. We made the decision not to hunt that food plot this year because we think the wind is just swirling too much no matter how perfect it. I think if you can set up on the top third of the ridge and play the wind you will be in good shape. Were going to try and put on more stands this year (actually this weekend) and have more options at every wind direction. After watching the wind this year and learning it I think that a few more fine tunes and we'll be in a lot better shape.
Also, are you bow or gun hunting?
