Bill the best thing you can do is do as much off season scouting as you can. I'm sure you can think of lots of peices of woods off highways, then look at them on topos. Get your compass and hit them woods you'll be surprized how much deer sign you'll find. Think out of the box. My hunting grounds all most all public and I only ran into one hunter this season. It takes years of hunting the same peices to figure good stand placement (wind ,time of year ect.) late summer you should have all your stands trimmed with plenty of shooting lanes. Guy's that you know on this site that consistantly take #'s of deer every year know their woods....like fishin put your time in and do ALOT of leg work...call me this off season
