WOW! Tough question being it is almost impopssible to tell what land looks like just from an aerial map if you have never been there.

If you saw 18 deer from the black dot, I would be really tempted to stay there though. If anything at all, I do think that I would move closer to where I saw the decent buck though if he was really far away.

looks to me there isn't to many trees around on this land. if thats the case i would set up in the trees just east of your position. also just for shi#s and giggles i may go down to the south east were you have trees/thickets bordering the roads and buildings. I've seen a lot of deer bed close to this type of environment. not really quiet but very little hunting so close to the buildings.
There's lots of trees jimmy. Aerial shots are taken in winter and all the deciduous trees have lost thier leaves. Just about the whole map to the north and east of the dot are trees. The dark ones are the conifers/evergreens, that still have needles/leaves.

I like the other suggestions and would add that if those evergreens to the north of your dot are coming down a slope to the corner then I'd move my dot to the west and be at the base of those. They would provide protected travel from the ridgetop down to the field and hardwoods.

Mo bow they all gave good suggestions but if I was you, I would get up in the green waterslide and do some scouting from there.

Where the 17 deer and the decent buck were. It doesn't get much more positive than that. It's not rocket science. Go where the deer are.

Also say your dot is to the north, southeast of that is a funnel between two openings. This is a natural bottleneck and I bet a good travel route.



Ditto..
Yep looks like a winner
