How many are experienced and have seen it work for them.
Ive been scouting a new area, and selected a stand location on a steepish slope funneling down to a creek. Seems the bucks work the bottom beside the creek in the thicker cover. Above where my stand is there are a doe trails meandering everywhere. The trails converge about 100 yards from where I'm at.
Since I don't want the does above me, winding me all the time, I decided to do a hinge cut up the hill to block passage. Most of what i cut was young holly, which I doubt they eat over all the other better food nearby. So I don't think the browse will attract them. Does this sound reasonable or am I doing it wrong?
