I don' t know what your experience has been when hunting standing corn, or if your terrain creates a different situation, but in my years of hunting near standing corn I determined that when the deer create trails through the corn they will not deviate from the trail unless spooked. Therefore, when hunting near standing corn I will setup near an entrance/exit. On a few occasions, I have seen the deer coming by the corn moving.

Several years ago, I had a friend bust a huge 10-pnt. buck by hunting near a standing corn trail. He (friend) was on the ground, one row in, and situated on the side that put the wind in his favor. He said he heard the buck coming and was able to get into a shooting stance before the buck arrived. The buck stopped before exiting the last row, apparently checking the area before leaving the corn. Friend said buck was 15 yards away and standing perfectly broadside. Arrow took out the buck' s entire operational center and he fell within 20-30 yards.
