Where should I create some hidey hole plots?

Question
Dear Grant,
I love your shows I watch them every Monday keep up the good work.I hear so much about food plot placement and small hidey hole food plots i am planning on adding one or two or three this spring on my property.I was wondering where your opinion was on the locations of these on my property.I have outlined in orange where I hunt and there is quite a bit of hunting pressure on the edges of the property line.And maybe a suggestion on what to plant in these bad boys.Tag soup isn’t real tasty no matter how much ketchup you put on it.
Thanks Matt.

Matt,
Hidey hole plots can be great stand/blind locations!
I don’t know the scale and can’t tell if there are any openings in the timber where sun reaches the soil at least during 1/2 the normal hours. I’d also consider where deer bed in the area and current travel areas.
I like to place hidey holes between bedding areas and primary feeding areas. I also consider if I can approach, hunt, and exit without alerting deer. I suspect you’ll need a stand/blind for each a north, south, east, and west wind!
Enjoy creation,
