Both. There isn't one answer. I find the easier the access as you said there was deer will spook easier. I've walked into deer who didnt care, and i have walked into deer who blew at me and ran. Do what you enjoy most. Personally, I walk a bit until i find a nice spot. then sit. move and repeat. If you find a well used game trail, sit off that trail somewhere keeping wind in mind and wait.
Get yourself a doe bleat can, when sitting in November if thats when you are out use that to arouse some interest. You can also get a little stool from canadian tire which is light and easier to attach to a backpack and you have a seat wherever you want, Depending on your physical limits, try and get away from easily accessed areas. Time in the woods will show you everything.
