Im fortunate to have all of the good stuff combined in my lease. I have actually walked up on some of the biggest buck bedding in everything from tall grass, under cedars, and where they are protected from the suns heat.

Here is my bow blind 25 yards from center of clover with bedding and trails surrounding the area. This time of year is where you will find most of the fawns being born. The most important thing to assure a deer is gonna bed down in it is minimal pressure from predators and people, so I always glass this field before stepping foot in it. Look for anything moving, and things that just seem out of place like an ear twitching or the antlers reflections.

North American Hunters magazine just had an article last month about the MANY types and germination to maturation times.


Great luck!
