What exactly is a "staging area"

[rfickes87]

I hear this term all the time. I feel like i have an idea but can someone explain this in detail? When/Where/Why? And how does it relate to bedding?

This would be a pretty good example of how I used this staging area to kill the buck. The staging area is kind of a safe haven the buck can be on its feet during daylight hrs. In this case it wasn't so safe for him. The key element in using a staging area is to get close to the buck before he knows it.

Good example Stan... If you were a buck in a bed, you can see a certain distance, you can smell certain areas around you, and you can hear approach to a certain distance... If you drew a circle around a bucks bedding area of the area he feels safe cause he can hear, see, or smell approaching danger, I would all this the bucks "safe zone". The staging area to me, is the edge of the safe zone where he starts to enter an area where he could not hear, see, or smell.
