Figure out access points and then find good glassing points from those access points. I’ve watched guys blow out a lot of good spots from just aimlessly walking around with their rifles during those seasons. The deer should be active and looking for love that time of year. Be patient and let your optics do the work for you.
But I will warn you the hunter pressure between 3rd and 4th is night and day in some units. I will take 4th and deal with potential crappy weather and a shorter season over the orange wave of 3rd and the headaches of guys screwing up your hunt plans on a daily basis.
Pick a unit and stick with it for a few seasons is my best advice. Some years have been rough and some years have been exceptional where I hunt back there.
