stand placement
Hi,
If I am hunting a narrow travel corridor lets say 40 yrd wide. Can I put 1 stand on one side and another on the other side directly across from it? One would be for a westerly wind and one easterly. On the west side its real thick and theres is a road and on the east side there is a fence. This corridor is littered with rubs and scrapes. The area has a low deer pop. comared to most of the common areas, But the pressure is low and there is sign of big deer. I cant wait til oct.
I am new at this and have a ton to learn. What stinks is I dont have many people to help me and the ones I do I dont trust to show them my spots, At least right now I dont.

RE: stand placement
Sure you can place one across from the other.
Just make sure you only hunt them when the wind allows and don't over hunt them. With such a small area you can alert deer to your presence very easily. Make sure you only hunt when conditions for either stand are perfect.
