I think that is what I'll do, once the season gets closer.

How deep in the woods should I go.
I would never have thought of hunting that spot.

This is gospel. I hunt a lot of funnels and that one is too narrow to sit in the middle. You'll alert the deer to your presence and they'll skirt the funnel. It is best to hunt the mouths of the funnel at either end like MOTOWN has said. Halilueya!![:-]

Skirt the Funnel, or Cross the field, Haliluya!!

Also, if you do put up a cam, be careful with scent. I really don't see how a cam is going to help any more than what you can see on the ground with tracks and droppings. You can pretty much bet the deer use that, why go in there needlessly just to get some pics?

Two wise men, need a third. I agree 100% with both of you guys. The other thing I might add is that if you can pinpoint where they bed, you may find that this funnel may not be that helpful. Looks like there is a fair amount of woods, maybe 50/50, but if you can pinpoint them to the funnel, then hunt it, but hunt it cautiously. If I were to try to hunt it, and the winds not be too prevalent, I'd hunt the south side of the funnel, leaving me an opportunity to shoot into the field due south, as they may venture into that field briefly traveling from one patch of woods to another, and being that the field is pretty protected from plain view, they will tend to enter the field earlier if they are anything like the deer around here. Cautious scouting from a distance can yield great results.
