OK please don't get offended to what I am writing here as I seriously am trying to help. You said you are new to hunting so my response in just guidelines of what i would tell a new hunter in my circle. I could easily tell you set up here and here (I see many potential ambush spots) and you would not necessarily learn the why. So I typically start out by saying become a student of whitetails. here are some steps i would try to take.
1. Get a copy of Mapping Trophy Whitetails by Brad Herndon - understanding terrain is vital for understanding whitetail movement, and no mater what or how we set up we are trying to shoot bucks or deer while they are moving.
2. Get Dan Infalt's videos on scouting and John Eberhart (buy used if needed)
3. Attend some scouting workshops if possible.
4. SCOUT, SCOUT, SCOUT then hunt. Seriously, the key to consistent success is to scout far more than you hunt - even in season
5. Learn the area - get in there and learn every square inch. Learn to identify food sources, bedding areas, edges, transitions lines, saddles, ridges, water holes, scrapes, rubs, staging areas, inside corners, overlooked spots, mast trees, etc…. map it all. It really takes time to learn an area but make one or two trips and scout it thoroughly. Once you understand where does and bucks beds, where food sources are and how they will use the terrain/cover to move from one to the next - set up your ambush spots and PLAN YOUR EXIT AND ENTRANCE routes. THEN STAY OUT until you are ready to hunt.
6. Talk to local biologist and find out key rut dates, what mast is in area, etc.
7. practice with your chosen gear a lot - try to make it as efficient and quiet as possible.
8. Learn about thermals, especially if you are hunting waterways and hill country.
9. Keep a good log book, especially during scouting and hunting. Record everything and look for patterns.
I've way over simplified this but the truth is no one but the DEER themselves can tell you were to hunt. we can make general recommendations based on what typically works, but only time in the area and learning to be observant will tell you exactly where.
10. And finally, probably the most important have FUN and do NOT be afraid to make mistakes. Sometimes you have to be super aggressive.
