Hey,
Currently, I have a run-and-gun setup that I am just beggining to use for white-tailed deer. I have found a well traversed trail that leads from a timbered bench (where I believe the animals are bedding), down 40m elevation to an open cutblock with various micro-topography features (rocky knolls). I want to setup near the trail, just inside the tree line, and against the hillside leading to the bench. My stand would be about 150m horizontal distance from the beds, and 40 m lower. Am I getting to close here? I'm worried my scent will drift on up to them... Any suggestions? Any of your stand placement advice welcome. Thanks!
