Default RE: Where are they?

This year I have switched to hunting feeding areas at night. Every night I get out, I set up on the edge of a field, about 20-30 yards off of a trail, making sure that I am in between a couple trails.
Lastnight I saw 3 bucks (7,spike,6) and tonight I sat in the same spot and saw 4 new deer (9,3,4and a doe) I get out about 5:30 and they start coming out at about quarter after 7 or so.
In the past I have tried setting up along trails in thick parts of the woods, but I found it to be too difficult to track down when they actually come through, but you can almost bet on them coming out into a field or other feeding area right before sunset. If you have any fields that have crops standing, I would give this a shot. So far I have seen alot of deer, probably more than I have seen in the last 3 years of bowhunting combined.
Good Luck in whatever you choose to do
