The land we hunt has about 2000 acres of overgrown clear cut. They bed AND feed whereever they want. They just meander around and browse. Then they bed down when they feel like it. I've been hunting this area since 1984 and have not found any pattern.

And even with the clear cut, swamps, blueberry thickets, laurel thickets and steep mountain sides, I've seen them bed down in the open forest or even in a field.

Maybe, in farm country, they have a specific place to bed. Which is the woods, because everything else is field. But, in the big woods, there's not one spot.
