Default New to Bowhunting Basic Question

I've been hunting whitetail since i was about 10 with a gun but me and some buddies got gifted a piece of land that we can't use guns on. We had always been interested in bowhunting but never had a good spot until now. we are all geared up and have been doing some serious scouting over the past season and this offseason. Opening day is coming fast (October 15th in south alabama) and i was just curious. Our land is 70 acres of thick pine and oak with a big trail through the middle and quite a few creekbottoms, we have about 9 stands set up in what we believe to be favorable spots. all about 25 feet up. This area has not been hunted in 20+ years, do you think three bowhunters spread evenly over 70 acres would cause deer to feel pressured? we would only be hunting maybe two to 4 times a month through the season. Thanks in advance!
