[QUOTE="MickThompson, post: 4952753, member: 3172"] I think depth of cover is important. Deeper/wider cover, more likely to be bedding. Not sure where the break over point is- I'd say that has a lot to do with what else is available. Also brushy, taller cover more likely to bed against than grassy/weedy. I also generally see beds relating more to terrain than cover- the roll of the hill is just as good as a thicket and it often has wind visibility advantages. I'd lean towards planting strips of cover (switchgrass for example) to break up the visibility of the plot itself. That should minimize bidding in it. I'd also provide bedding areas in strategic locations. [/QUOTE]
