Early season you should be able to determine their staging areas in between their bedding and feeding... The mature animals will stage prior to walking out to feed...
Find natural funnels leading to these staging areas and set up remembering the sun sets in the West.. If you plan on hunting evenings, you want your set up facing east, if not you will be lit up and reduce your chances...
If hunting mature animals, play the WIND, do NOT gamble as once they figure you out, well usually game over so to speak...
One thing I do that really helps in these staging areas is second week of August I will take a weed wacker in and level the tall grass... These grasses will recover fast and bring on new growth that is palatable to your prey... It usually encourages travel through this area opposed to "X" yards away...
Best of luck and only 130 days till the stainless flies
