    What has been your experience on how far Bucks bed from Doe family groups? If you can, give some examples.

    Thanks

    I think it can be a great distance at times. In my experience, which is still very immature. I'd say does will bed when they have cover, but the big bucks will bed where they know they will be safe. Deep swamps, far into the timbers, places not easily accessible for predators.
