    Let me preface this by saying I'm a beginner hunter...this is my first year with a bow. I put an "X" where my stand is, and drew arrows showing paths I have seen does take while I was hunting. There aren't any food plots or fields nearby, and there are a few large marshes and swamps. I have yet to see a buck, or any signs like rubs or scrapes in the area. What do you guys think about this location?

    i would maybe go closer to where your furthest left arrow is, try to catch them on that tree line, or maybe one in both spots

    I think that could become a good spot. You should think about putting in a food plot for coming up years since there are no food sources near. That little area is secluded and good room for clover or something good.

    Try Bing Maps as well. It usually zooms in better.
