[QUOTE="JCDEERMAN, post: 5893919, member: 5787"] I agree with most everything that’s been said here. There are a few areas I know bucks tend to bed year after year. Not a specific bed - that’s ridiculous in our environment, but certain areas do tend to be repeat offenders in November/December. 3 areas stick out to me that I set up on occasionally. All are ones I’ve capitalized a few times in the mornings as they’re headed there, but can’t get close to in the evenings - have heard them get up and leave but I’m 100+ yards away and never see them due to darkness. But again, these aren’t specific beds or even 1-2 acre blocks. They are areas around 3–5 acres, so the same principle applies. They use general areas to bed, but it never gets anything close to “granular” like some think (and predict on hunting shows). I will say finding as many buck beds that you can throughout your hunting career can help identify HOW they like to bed. But as far as consistency, they are a random species and will lay when they feel like laying, no matter the scenario [/QUOTE]
