Kinda hard to read your post because its one long run on sentence... But, maybe try and put a trail camera up in the spot and see if you can get some deer on camera. That should give you an idea what time they are frequenting the area.

I agree with gbrownlee. Put a camera up first, or atleast scout the area a little better to find trails coming into and out of the mud. Is there any tracks?
