The biggest problem I have is... I have 22 acres of wide open hay field surround by a couple hundred acres of cross fenced hay fields. I have no idea why the bucks are hanging out on my place or how I will get set up on them inside of 20 yds with zero cover.
And if they are just there to eat, then that is an important thing to note. You need to figure out where they would come from, etc.
Also, I know hindsight is 20/20, but I don't bother corning a place that I don't already have a setup in mind ahead of time. I have been in a similar situation however where I can't move the feeder and I have had to be creative in getting close. In some cases, just putting a blind out in the open and leaving it there for a long time helps... although the deer eventually figure out how to circle the darned thing, etc. The other tactic is to hand corn a spot near the feeder but in a better location for an ambush. Deer will find it pretty darn quick because they are already in the area due to the feeder.
In your situation, I might just consider moving the feeder to a better location where you can get a better setup.
