bowfanatic, I also think it's a stagin area. yes, there's about a 5 year old clear cut(very thick) about 150yds from this little ridge. the deer are no longer in this small area. could be I scared them out of there (if they were beddin in there) the first month of season.
I done a lot of walkin right down the edge of the clear-cut to get to the corner, where i had a stand.

I'm thinkin maybe they come from that old clear-cut, to this little ridge to feed, till dark. then maybe they hit the new clear-cut.
yes, there are whiteoaks in there.

I think I'll go in there now, and find the main trail there usin to get from the old clear-cut, to this little ridge, where all the rubs are. they have to cross a creek to get there, so if I can find their main crossin, that would be a good stand site.

I know they will bed down in those small thickets, I've jumped them up a few times before. but in this particular place, I think your right about it being a stagin area.
