Default Ground Hunting From the Corn?

This year I planted corn and soybeans in strips, with the thought of maximizing cover and summer/winter food sources. I also was pretty careful to plant the main strip of Soybeans - 30yds wide between 2 acres of corn. My intent is to try to ambush an early season buck feeding in the soybeans between the corn with a bow. I would maybe sit on the ground back a couple rows downwind of the beans.





I also plan to hunt the hedgerow the stand is that overlooks the field - this is where the picture was taken from.

Has anyone bowhunted from inside a couple rows? Any Tips? Maybe its not such a good idea? - I'd appreciate any input.

I scouted a little already and watched one buck come from out of the corn tofeed in the strip - so I guess I'm going to have to worry about them bedding in it too.

Thanks for any suggestions.
