Swamp Bottom Question

Last year i hunted an area in a swamp bottom in middle GA that for the most part was flat with ankle deep water and a decent number of trees scattered throughout. Off to my right it becomes waist deep and a true swamp and a little to my left there is a pretty steep hill. I was only able to hunt this area during thanksgiving last year which was during the rut and saw plenty of activity and several small bucks on does trails. This year i will once again be able to hunt the same spot except there is no water this year. Do yall believe the bucks and does will use the same area for rutting activities as the year before Thanks for any help.

Deer are creatures of habit, as long as they feelno fear and/or smell any danger they will continue to be in this genral area. But remember, during the rut, you can throw the word "habit" out of the window, they just run a muck. Good luck.;)
