I had to change hunting stand locations and I'm wondering if cutting 2-3 shooting lanes will be too much disruption this late in the season. What do you think?

I did just that on Saturday. I needed to have two more lanes opened since I saw deer use narrow trails that weren't visible to me. Sure, I didn't see anything for the rest of the day, but I attribute it to the three loud trespassers that tromped right up to me.

Leaves are still falling, wood changing everyday. But like stated try to keep the smells down. Ed

I opened up the shooting lane I shot my buck in tonight on Sunday. He never knew what hit him.

I doubt a deer would memorize where each branch of each tree is located.

A squirrel might miss it though. ;)
