Default Trail Camera Placement?

this is my land...the big wooded area but the field south is wheat field this year and it will be a bean field next year( i dunno if that will affect deer movement or not) there is alot of deer movement in there...i can not find a main trail to set up my camera on ( it is a moultrie D40 by the way) that is why i am asking for your help. i no trail cameras are advanced but they cant take 100 yard by 100 yard pictures![8D] there was a monster buck spotted in the southeast corner of our land. we had no idea he was in there so we are gunna scout him this year just any imput would help...here is a link to the picture if you need it for some reason http://www.flashearth.com/?lat=40.338758&lon=-94.703097&z=17&r=0&src=ggl ....thanks

oh and wherever you guys agree on the most i am going to scout it this weekend for trails. there is enough snow on the ground to see a good trail

About all I would say is look for a main herd trail and then if you can find a single trail that has large tracks on it , See if you can find trails leading to the beeding areas .If you put the D-40 out rember that if the trail is more that 30 feet away from the camera all you will get is good daytime pictures . If there is no winter feed ing the area the deer will be in there winter yard area or where there is a good food source .
