Tips for hunting a spot blind

As some may remember, my place is being logged. I know that deer will still maintain their travel areas even if it's logged. Problem being that I've lost all my landmarks and places that I could count on seeing deer are harder to find because my mental map of the area doesn't match anymore.
I should've logged everything in with a gps before hand but didn't think I'd have a problem. I'm gonna go down there tomorrow and do what I can but I was wondering if anyone had any tips on what equals to starting over on the place I've been hunting my whole life.

I would put a stand in an area that I could see a long ways. As you see deer move you can place additional stands to cover those areas.
Near water and edges of woods clearings.

Find where there's still some thick stuff. They'll be going into it in the mornings and coming out of it in the evenings.

Did they leave any oaks or were there any to begin with? If so, I would try to find an isolated white oak that's dropping acorns and as previously suggested, get up high in the vicinity of that tree.

I personally dont think it is safe to give a blind person a weapon.

Your land is entirely different so you will need to hunt differently. Does will walk right out in a newly cut area but the bucks will hang out in the edges till dark. Look for where the trails are leading to the clear cut and hunt a staging area in the woods on the edges of the clearcut. Same thing happened with my land last year and I saw more deer doing this than I ever saw in years before with standing timber.
