Default RE: Bow Hunting Swamps or Fields?

I try to hunt field edges nearby a swamp. Deer love to bed in a swamps tall grass and reeds which usually skirt the swamp itself. I look for travel routes going from swamp to destination feed fields like corn, soybean, even backyards of people living nearby. I have found that many deer travel from a thick swamp grass to a nearby backyard offering a food source like apple trees. After browsing these yards they head to a bigger source like a corn field.
