winds are typically left to right on the picture. deer are mostly browsing on acorns, persimmons, and browse. they bed throughout the area - its mostly open woods.

Josh..here is a link to a simple topo map of your area:

Looks like you have some big watersheds around your area.

Oak flat bedding area stand is my choice. I think you can get down there through the clear cut and set up as those deer move back to the bedding area in the morning. Cant wait and I hope you take that stand.

RE: pick my morning hunt stand.
The oak flat/bedding area stand is one of my favorites. Its set on top of a ridge thats loaded with acrons. To the right is where they feed at night (over grown field), and the bed on the next ridge behind the stand, in a THICK briar area. Access is fairly easy as well, I park at the base of the powerline, and walk right to the ridge, then an old logging road takes me within 20 yards of the stand.

RE: pick my morning hunt stand.
They dont necesarrily bed in the field, but you need a south wind to hunt it. And its most of an evening stand, since you go through the field to access the stand
