I hung a couple stands the other day in what I think may be a dandy spot. Others may think it is stupid. Here's a description.
A narrow, 40 yard wide draw that sticks out into a bean field. the draw points to the west and is about 80 yards long. The deer have been entering the field on both the north and south sides of the draw. So I hung stands on both sides also. So far OK. Here's the part that throws a kink in it. There's a house maybe 70 or 80 yards from both stands. My thinking is the deer that are using these trails are familiar with human activity around that area so they aren't quite as cautious as normal.
The deer have been using these trails hard so I don't think they are overly concerned with the house that close. Do you think it's a gamble
