I'd take it easy moving stands around.

It's always a first instinct to move a stand if you see deer too far away......I missed a chance at a half white doe one time because I moved a stand after seeing her once and the next time I hunted it, the doe came out closer to my old spot than where I had moved the stand.
Stay put and give the deer a chance to come out closer to you. If you see them in the same place a few more times, then move it....just make sure you are downwind.
good luck
