RE: WHAT WOULD YOU DO IF...?
Stay dang quiet and still. Next hunt move the stand into 20 yard range and see where they come out. I would be very patient. If you move your stand and they are comming out 40 yards away. Wait again and move the stand closer the next time. Deer follow a pattern as long as you don't disturb this pattern they will stick to it. Once you know the pattern you can put your stand right on them. Then you'll get a great shot.
good luck
