I would hunt the edges of the fields. The deer will stage late in the afternoon before they go out in the fields, just look for the trails and these areas.

what you need to do is go to walmart or somewhere and get come corn or a block of salt and put it right off of a trail and come back to that spot and check it in like 2 or 3 days.

WHile there is no food per se on your property, it sounds like it may be a valuable bedding area. It also may be an area where they go to breed during the rut. Look the area over closely for beds and spend a day or 2, all day out there and see what comes through. Are there any trails , even light ones cutting through?
