There's no other way into this spot. If I come in any other way, I'd be tresspassing. The spot is land locked and besides it's only 40 acres so it wouldn't matter which way I came in, I'd still be kicking up deer in this 4x10 acre bed. I suppose what I really want to ask nowis whether or not these deer will be getting up to move aroundat timesor will they bed down the whole day? How do bedded deer generally behave during daylight hours is another way to put my question.

Excuse my ignence butconsidering this is bedding, wouldn't the deer be there hiding out all day until it starts getting near dusk then move about? If so, I'm still in the same predicament 'cause I'd still kick them up coming in at 3pm. I guess hence the reason you shouldn't hunt bedding areas huh?

To the guy who asked if this was a buck or doe bedding area, I'm not absolutely sure. I heard the deer take off in all directions and some of the commotion did sound a bit like antlers hitting branches. Also, later on during the late morning, I rattled/grunted and a small six pointer came storming in huffing and puffing. I later discovered after getting down that there are4-5 rubs within 10 yards of my tree. How does this change the situation if anything?
