I'd have kept all the limbs on your ladder stand tree for better concealment.  Looks pretty exposed.  And you better watch the wind like crazy in tight quarters like that too.  If the wind isn't right, stay out of there until it is.  Good luck.

:yeah:
With nothing between your stand and the feed site, especially at that short of distance you are going to have a hell of a time pulling it off.  You would be better off placing your stand at the farthest of the three trees on the left.  Hope it all works out for you but if not think about backing off a few yards and with some more stuff between you and the site.  :twocents:
