They'll be drilling throughout deer season and the plan is to spread some of the mud over part of field to plant clover. Sounds like good for the deer, but will they be used to the rig/noise/lights or will they avoid the field altogether?
Stand will be about 650 yards from the location.

I had to go work in our shop the past 2 days. I seen deer tracks in the breeze way between two of the shops. Deer will be there, go get one.
