| At what point do you usually call it quits hunting AM? (Posted on 10/6/12 at 7:10 am)
Wind is gusting and considering trolling the timber... I usually sit until 10:30 or so if I'm comfy. Thoughts?

It all depends on the situation/weather/time of year/ rut Most of the time 10ish

I always try to hunt later in a full moon. I think midday doesn't get enough credit sometimes.

Like most, it just depends. Never before 9:30.

Try to hang in there until 9ish unless deer are not moving. Mostly depends on time of year and activity as eveyone else has said

Hot, foggy and 0 wind down here. Started to go this am, but its game day, but if my tree isn't rocking I like to stay about a hour after the rest of the guys head back to camp. I've killed several deer between 10-11 after we start putting pressure on them.

Some days at 8:30 I get antsy and get down and walk around for an hour and head back in. Some days I'll feel good or I'll see something later in the hunt and I'll sit past 11. Average would be 10-10:30 though

I'd stay in the tree all day, but jacking down around 11 to eat a sammich and take a shawt nap, then keep on hunting til dark, or in recent years if the LSU game was on tv, would go back to the camp then..

Usually 'til 10 or 11. Don't know that I'd go strolling around if the wind is gonna blow my scent all over the place, but that's just me.
