I have access to the attached 40 acre parcel. Parcel boarder is delineated by the red cloud square. The orange is my only access route. I have walked a good portion of the property except for north of the creek in the real low area. Pretty much everything south of the creek is mature hardwoods. There are 2 trails (foot traffic only) winding through the property that deer obviously (tracks) are using. I did not see any major “intersections” or rubs from last year along it. Upon looking at the topo map (attached) the ground is very level so there are no funnels or ridges to assist stand placement which is typically my personal favorite way to pick a stand. On the topo map the black square is the property boarder and the access (from my gps) route is shown. The large field to the west is planted with corn. I am not sure what is planted to the east. Crops of some type I am sure. This is primarily a farming area. Any suggestions as to stand placement? I have three spots (shown in pink) that I am considering based on the aerial. This one is tough for me because there are no topographic or edge features that are on the property. When I walked the property I saw various deer tracks but nothing to hang my hat on. I did see a good quantity of tracks along the two trails I referred to earlier. Would you just set-up on a tree next to that trail? Look for White Oaks and set-up there? Anything else you see that I am missing that should be checked out?
It is an open highground field. I don't know if anything is planted there this year. I have never been to that corner in person.
