RE: patterning deer
Tazman, you asked about water and bedding areas, there is a spring fed creek that goes through the middle of the property starting at my biggest food plot, there is also a lot of small (4 to6 foot diameter) sinkholes scattered around so water is usually close by. As for bedding , I know that they use the clearcuts but we are surrounded by them and there is trails going everywhere into and out of all of them. Ive even tried using my trailcam and cant consistently get a particular deer over one or two times. The bedding puzzle is the hardest for me to figure out. I spend days and days scouting for beds, and only find random beds even the clearcuts.
