While I was hiking towards some elk I jumped a really nice whitetail buck out of his afternoon bed. I was wondering if anyone had any idea on how long until that deer might use that bed again.
 
Could be a tomorrow or never, this time of year I would think your in his home ground so I would guess a lot would depend on just how many seasons he has been around .
 
I would say not for a while. How much pressure is there in that area? Big bucks, once spooked, will go nocturnal until the rut.
 
That buck could come back the same day, depending on how bad you bumped him out of his bed. Go to thehuntingbeast.com and do some heavy reading. Those guys know there stuff about hunting whitetails beds.
