Find water in the most remote patch of ground you can find would be a start without knowing the particulars of the area. What looks like good deer country might not hold any while you’d be surprised to find deer in other areas… lots of other variables, too, like migration and adjacent private...
Butcher boy is right on the money. Done quite a few that way.
Looks like you better find another skull guy. Is he using bleach in the water or just boiling too long? Wow…
Yes, up to about a month some years. I use 10” landscaping spikes instead of the chinsy little ones that come with the blind.
Leaving the blind can be risky if there are cows around if you don’t plan for that as well as severe storms. I’ve had a blind collapse due to severe wind but the stakes...

I shot a cow at 20 yards with a muzzy 4 100 and got a complete pass through, dead centered the shoulder blade. I was shooting a bowtech tomcat at the time, 70 lb, 29” draw. No idea on arrow weight, whatever they had at sportsman’s warehouse at the time.
I like game meat but there are some techniques to get the best taste possible. This is dependent on the cut and/ or dish, but you can start with grinding in some beef fat to burger and using marinades for whole cuts. Other stuff like not cooking it to death and resting after cooking… Also, don’t...

I would not run a non vented heat source, especially in small quarters, overnight without a fresh air source nearby.
Years ago when kerosene was cheaper I would use a kerosene heater inside when it got real cold. I’d crack a window nearby.
I’ve used propane heaters in tents but not overnight...
