We only get a few inches here and there at a time...
Its kinda hard to understand then if you dont have as much snow..
I went to my family's hunting land a few days after christmas to pull some stands and cams, and beds were in the most random places.. Ive seen it before on other properties Ive hunted in the late season too.. Most of the beds look like a couple does were walking along and decided to lay down and take a break for 15 mins, some are even just out in the middle of the food plots. Some of them I saw were 100 yards away from a corn field, but just out in the middle of the woods. Thats what had me so confused as to whether or not scouting this time of year would even be worth it..I didnt know if bucks would still be using their primary beds, and if they are, how I can tell the difference between those and the other ten million beds I see everywhere..
Here is a link to a thread I started about it before..you can see what some of the beds look like..The pictures in that thread are the ones that look like they actually get used all the time (since some are down to the leaves), but there are hundreds more I saw that day that arent like that..
