Default I need your help, got any idea how to hunt this?

Ok, on Thanksgiving, we were sittin around talk at my house, and all of a sudden my mom starts yelling, "LANCE LANCE LANCE, GET IN HERE AND LOOK, LOOK!!!" So I get up and run to the door, and low and behold theres a buck standing the in the field across from my house. I couldn't tell exactly, but he was a pretty big eight or 10 pointer. Ive been seeing tons of does in the field, I mean tons, but never a buck, til then. Now, Take a look at the picture. Thats the outline of the field. The purple dot is where he was standing, and the line is where he ran after a car spooked him. The pink circle is where they feed. The straight red line is the top of a hill, and if your back in the corner, you cant see anything 'cept trees and the field. the green parallel lines is the path they always come out of. the red square is where I thought about setting up a blind. The field is clover, and during the summer my uncle shredded the field because it was getting weedy, well back in the corner where they feed, it pretty much didn't need shredded from them eating it all. Now, My question is, when theres snow on the ground, Do you think they would flock to this area to eat, or would they stay in the woods where theres cover when its cold? Got any tips or questions that i should know? Im settin up a blind, because there is another hunter in this spot, but just everynow and then, and I dont want to put a treestand because of him. I dont want to buy a climber because I have a VERY limited budget, Im getting the blind used for 20 bucks.
