We have 4 stand options, I have one off the edge of the bean field on a mineral lick in some thick woods, and the other one on a ridge with white oaks about 40 yards off a food plot

My wife has one off a hay field on a mineral lick and one down between two ridges with a food plot on top of one ridge and a grown up field on top of the other, it has a pond to the left and white oaks around it, which ones should we hunt in the morning?
 
If it was me (and I'm wrong a lot) I would stick close to the white oaks. Thats where I've been seeing most of mine, while I haven't seen squat around my plots.
 
Wind direction first thought that comes to mind. Not knowing your property, where deer bed, how many acorns etc. I'd be close to cover on a travel route to or from the current primary food source.. If you're unsure of the primary food source, that'd be my goal tommorrow..

Scouted today. There were no deer in the food plots. Soon as I get my bow sighted in I plan on hunting thick bedding areas with browse in the mornings and then acorns in the afternoon. They have really pulled off the fields this week as far as I can tell

x2 on the white oaks.

I would high in the morning, and low in the evening in most cases.
If your water is one of the few water options for wildlife in the immediate area, and you can get between the water and a bedding area, I would give that a shot. Have your wife hunt her favorite stand, compare notes at lunch and you may have your Sunday am answer.
Good luck, and I'm jealous. My wife is a city girl and would not even THINK of following me in the woods.
