Default RE: bedding areas?

Here in Louisiana & Arkansas there are mainly clear cut areas that stay thick thick for many years. If the deer use these areas to bed, which they do, how do you hunt them. I mean the grasses and weeds are as high as the little pines. Last year I was on the edge of a 5 year old clear cut and I could see the were coming cause the tall weeds were moving. When they got to within about 25 yds. they started walking in a small circle like an old houndog and bedded up right there. When they moved out a couple hours later they headed into the wind into a thicket of 8 year old pines and briars. Are these types of bedding areas huntable? When the deer move they seem to keep thes real thick areas to their downwind side. It' s tough!!
