what kind of hunting pressure does this area see? If it see's a lot of pressure from other hunters then my move would be to figure out what most hunters would do and where they would go. Then I would figure out where that would push the deer to. I would set myself up between where the deer are and where the other hunters will push them. I call it the C.H.Factor. The common hunter factor. What will the common hunter look for and where will he go and how will this effect my stand. You might have big enough woods that this isn't much of an issue for you but here in NJ you always have to figure in the C.H.Factor! The big deer didn't get big by hanging out where everyone is looking for them! They find places people don't look and thats what I look for.....Good Luck...Jim
