Default RE: Bedding areas

consider this, this year i found a great bedding area, i saw 2 150-170" bucks staying in it. it is on public hunting land right off the road. people park 100 yards from the spot every day and most of them overlook it. first time i saw them i tried to go in and get a shot, i didn't get the shot. the next day i sat down where one of the bucks exited prior and had my buddy push out the area, well it worked and the buck came running right for me, i didn't get the shot off again. i believed the bucks would never come back after that so i gave up on it. later that week i told 2 out of state hunters right where i had the encounter and told them they were more than welcome to hunt it. they did the following morning and shot my buck as he was walking back into the bed. the buck was a 10pt 160, lesson learned.
