Maybe, maybe not. If your setting up on a food source, that food source might change by the opener. Will the corn be picked or still standing? Will the beans still be standing? What about the alfalfa? Does the farmer plan on cutting it around the opener, or will it have already grown back? Will a white oak be dropping acorns back in the woods? I know some treestands produce every year so they can be hung now, but I learned long ago when hunting early season food sources you need to ANTICIPATE as best you can what the deer will be doing THEN not NOW. Or you'll be changing your set ups right before the opener. Just someting to ponder.
