If the woods have a good number of acorn bearing oaks ... especially that tree line where "deernutz" suggested you locate a stand ... might be able to catch a few feeding along. If the land owner will let you put in a food plot, one along about where "deernutz" suggested looks like a great spot.

Meantime look for both new and old rub lines, dropping acorns and figure out a good way in-out in order to not blow out the deer hanging around. If the deer are in there, they will feed on the acorns and there should be a good deal of droppings where the fresh acorns are.

50 acres is not a bunch, so blowing any bedding or feeding deer out of there would be relatively easy to do. Down this way the best hunting is usually during N to NW wind direction ... so if you could find a way in from the SE corner of the property I think that would work out pretty good.
