The area highlighted in red is roughly 500 acres. The blue/yellow spots are 1/8-1/2 acre food plots. They are mixes of clover, cereal grains, and brassicas. Conservation ground borders 1/4 mile of the the top of the property on the right side. The land owner has cattle in the bottom and the pasture USED to be alfalfa and clover. I'm not sure if theres really any alfalfa left, but there is clover. Thanks ahead of time.

See that kinda square field right in the middle? (to the right of the river) There is a small woodline seperating it from an arrowhead shaped field above it (that has plot at tip). I would look into putting a stand or 2 in that woodline, one to the right and one closer/close to the river. I'm thinking you could see into both fields from in there.
Also if you go clockwise from top left, the 4th plot mark looks like it has some kinda open woods to the right. I like that area too.

Most of it is covered, but just below the northeast corner there is a road that cuts across the property to the center. As there is nothing in that northeast area I would check to see what is in that area. The topo isn't too bad up there.

Thanks for all help. Here's another map I found that shows cedars a bit better. I also marked the spots where deer were shot last year. Green spots are bow kills and yellow are rifle/muzzleloader.
I also marked a couple of good crossings. The red line going across the field was used by a big buck during rifle season, but nobody was in position for a shot and just watched him go across. We never did hunt these as much as we should and plan to change that this year.
