If that clearing of yours has a stream though it then yes we visited it on mothers day. .
Sitting at the edge of it just smack on daybreak we had 5-6 within 50 metres or so all around us but we were in the clear at the bottom of the bowl and they were in the thicker stuff looking down on us .We sat for 30-40 mins doing our best to get them in close,id say the stag that crashed off was 7-8 metres away and got a glimpse of him at one stage but nothing worth risking a shot over.

Had a wander around the area after and seems the stag spends a lot of time there, about a 3m sq areas all trodden up,once we heard an antler knock on wood we tried the same,he was interested as he came in close,once he scented us he bailed as noisy as he could.Talk about being on edge as it came closer n closer..

Man that place is interesting,huge areas choked with supplejack then huge swathes all clear cept for those grasses.

Cant wait to get back. Been in there reccing about once a week since last season shut.
