Buck Magnet; the deer on my property usually bed during the spring and summer on peaks of hills in tall grass/alfalfa or like you said among apple trees on the side of a hill. The big thing that both places have is a clear view for the deer. In the fall they move to the cattail swamp, cedars or spruces. But again they have visibility and escape routes from where they bed. If you block off their view from one side they may not feel safe.

You may want to use the brush to create deer funnels.
