I will not hunt in a bedding area itself. Its to easy to have deer bust you. And if pass on smaller deer that bed there, then its going to be hard to get away undected. That can make things difficult when hunting bigger bucks. Instead hunt the trails going to or from the bedding area when the wind is right. Deer will have different bedding areas that they will use as condtions change, hunting pressure, rut, food sources. They all play a roll.
